I will be joining Carnival Liberty April 4 - May 24 at the piano bar!  I am excited to meet great people, have fun making music, and learning more about Bahamian culture and people!  Perhaps I'll see you there! ;)

Having so much fun playing out at sea that I decided to continue the voyage - this time on the Carnival Valor through the first week of March!  See you on board!

I'm currently out at sea playing and singing in the piano bar on Carnival Vista!  It has been an absolutely wonderful experience full of music, fun, great people, and worldly adventure!  The places that I've visited on board the Carnival ships include Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Grand Turk,Mexico, Honduras, Belize, and the Bahamas.  It's been historically and culturally educational.  One of my favorite experiences was visiting Bob Marley's home and playing the family piano!  Watch my instagram: @mzrags for more pics and updates!

Thankful to Essentially Pop for doing this Exclusive Premiere for my brand new music video "Paranoia"!  Check it out here! https://essentiallypop.com/epop/2018/02/video-premiere-paranoia-by-sarah-ragsdale/

I am excited to announce the release of my upcoming video "Paranoia" COMING SOON on February 8!  The video was shot on a cold snowy day in Prospect Park in Brooklyn, NY and it's different from any that I've ever done.  Thanks to Douglas Ferguson who shot the video (and also took this picture!).  More updates to come!

2017 has been an amazing year and I am thankful for the people in my life who have made it that way!  Wishing all of you Happy Holidays and an amazing New Year 2018!

One of the highlights for me this holiday season has been being part of the Cancer Kids & Christmas event back in my hometown.  This big fundraising event was all organized by Travis Sparks who, himself, was threatened by cancer, and was then inspired to help others affected by this horrible disease, especially during the holiday season.  Being in this hometown atmosphere and seeing people come together to help each other was so uplifting, and a reminder of how we all should strive to help others year-round!  It was a humbling experience, and I am thankful.
