Sarah Harmer is working her way up the ranks on the list of highly talented and highly successful Canadian female performers. Growing up in southern Ontario, Harmer and some friends formed a band while attending Queen's College. In 1994, Weeping Tile made its debut with Harmer as lead singer and lead songwriter.
After moderate success with the band, Harmer is on hiatus from Weeping Tile to work on her solo career. 1999 saw her playing with the Indigo Girls, Moxy Fruvous and Great Big Sea.
