Sara Bareilles, the Eureka singer and pianist born in 1979, broke through on Epic Records with her second album, Little Voice, in 2007. Its lead single, "Love Song", climbed to number four on the Hot 100 and landed Grammy nominations for Song of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Kaleidoscope Heart went in at the top of the Billboard 200 in 2010, and The Blessed Unrest earned an Album of the Year nomination in 2013. Her piano pop is warm, wry and more sharply written than the soft-rock tag suggests.
Then she headed for Broadway. She wrote the music and lyrics for the 2015 musical Waitress, which brought her a Tony nomination for Best Original Score, and her fifth album, What's Inside: Songs from Waitress, gave her own takes on the show's songs, plus some that never made it into the production. The album is also home to "She Used to Be Mine". More Tony nominations followed for SpongeBob SquarePants and a revival of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods.
She played Mary Magdalene in Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert on NBC in 2018 and picked up an Emmy nomination for it. Amidst the Chaos, in 2019, brought her back to the pop side with "Armor", and there are two Grammys on the shelf.
