Songwriter, vocalist and
multi-instrumentalist SARITAH
is a talented artist with a
positive vision for the future.
On Ancient Forward,
she plays an array of
instruments including electric,
steel string and nylon string
guitars, keys, percussion,
melodica and on the defiant
Our Future, drumkit and bass
guitar. She is joined by a
diverse selection of some of
Brisbane’s finest musicians.
Since the release of
Ancient Forward,
SARITAH has toured

‘Kispiox’ Festivals in Canada as
well as performing shows in the
UK, California, Mozambique and
South Africa, SARITAH has
been building her fan base
across the globe.
On Ancient Forward,
positivity and affirmations sit organically beside the
serious. Driving rhythm sections and programmed beats give way
to space and melody; earthy textures create a worldly yet
intimate album that for the listener, is a joy to hear. It is an
album that flows and ebbs in a dynamic, colourful style that
SARITAH has cemented, as her own. An accomplished recording,
it confirms SARITAH as one of Australia’s most talented
and exciting artists, with something to say.
