SARA WATKINS is the debut solo album by the fiddler and singer from the bluegrass group Nickel Creek. Produced by Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones and featuring guest appearances byGillian Welch and David Rawlings, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' Benmont Tench, Elvis Costello and the Attractions' Pete Thomas, and several of her Nickel Creek bandmates, SARA WATKINS is a modern-day southern California country-rock album. Songs by Jimmie Rodgers, John Hartford, Norman Blake, Tom Waits, and Jon Brion sit alongside Watkins originals, all of them given arrangements that draw from vintage country, singer-songwriter pop, and alternative rock influences. Highlights include "Long Hot Summer Days" and "All This Time".

A very good album from the ex-Nickel Creek fiddler. Sensitively produced by John Paul Jones it includes an excellent mixture of styles and moods, with some intersting guest appearances.
Solo Debut fron Nickel Creek Violinist.

After 18 years as the Violinist with Nickel Creek, definitely worth a listen, Sara has at last plunged in and released a solo album. Aided by her former Nickel Creek partners and a host of equally talented musicians she shows just what she can do.
Very enjoyable. Give it a try
