JACKSON, Wyo. — On Wednesday, March 23 at 7 p.m., ten-time Grammy-nominated Sarah Jarosz will take the stage at The Center Theater.

With her captivating voice and richly detailed songwriting, Sarah Jarosz has emerged as one of the most compelling musicians of her generation. The Texas native started singing as a young girl and became an accomplished multi-instrumentalist by her early teens, winning four Grammys before the age of 30.

In the making of her new album “World On the Ground,” the New York City-based artist collaborated with producer/songwriter John Leventhal: a five-time Grammy Award winner known for his work with Elvis Costello, Shawn Colvin, and his wife Rosanne Cash. Working almost entirely on their own, the two musicians crafted a subtle tapestry of sound perfectly suited to Jarosz’s lyrical storytelling.

“We are thrilled to have Sarah Jarosz cap off our 2022 Winter Season,” said Executive Director, Marty Camino. “Her songwriting and artistry is second to none; it is such a treat to be able to bring artists of her caliber to our community.”

In a departure from the nuanced introspection of her previous work, “World On the Ground” unfolds as a finely wrought collection of stories from her hometown of Wimberley, Texas (population: 2,626), presenting a series of character sketches nearly novelistic in emotional scope. As she inhabits characters both real and imagined—exploring the tension and inertia of small-town living, the desire for escape, and the ease of staying put—Jarosz reveals her remarkable gift for slipping into the inner lives of others and patiently uncovering so much indelible insight.

Sarah’s concert will be the final Center Presents show of the 2022 Winter Season for Center for the Arts. The Center had a successful Winter Season selling out the majority of events. Less than 100 tickets are still available for this final show, which can be purchased at The Center’s website here.

Stay tuned in the coming weeks for announcements of The Center Presents Summer Season, a return of Music Mondays, and more program offerings from Center Residents including Art Association of Jackson Hole, Dancers’ Workshop, Teton Music School, Off Square Theatre, and more.
