Who am I?

Singer, songwriter and sax player

Saara is a versatile singer, songwriter, and saxophonist whose passion is voice and performing on stage. She stepped onto the stage for the first time at just 15, performing with her father's blues band at the Blues Picnic festival, and instantly fell in love with performing. Ever since, Saara has had the passion of delivering stories with her voice and songwriting but also helping other singers to do the same. She wants you to have all the knowledge and power in your voice to tell your own story with confidence.

Authorized Complete Vocal Technique (CVT) teacher

That early passion led to a deeper pursuit. Saara quickly realized that to sing with the power and longevity of her idols, she needed to master vocal technique. This drive led her to study music profoundly, culminating in her graduation as a singing teacher from the Complete Vocal Institute in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2019.

Today, Saara has performed for over 15 years at events both in Finland and abroad. Her original music—featured exclusively on her albums, co-written with various collaborators—has reached listeners globally, airing on roots music radio stations from Australia to Venezuela.

Helping you to stand out

Beyond the stage, Saara holds an international double degree in European Management from Metropolia University of Applied Sciences and the Berlin School of Economics, specializing in marketing and communication. This background ensures that she can help you in the creative side and practical sense what comes to establishing web presence, gig booking and so forth.

Testimonials

Saara's singing lessons have been truly rewarding and developmental for someone who has mainly tried singing occasionally in karaoke. In addition to the improvement in singing technique, the development of self-confidence and self-awareness has also been significant, and after each singing lesson, I have felt like I have surpassed myself and felt empowered. So I can easily recommend singing lessons not only for singing but also for general well-being."

"I wanted to develop my singing in a certain direction so that singing in a metal band would go smoothly without damaging my voice. I found Saara by googling and after getting acquainted, I have become a regular customer. Saara helps to find individual methods based on her training, and I have noticed good development in my voice. I dare to do things that I would have previously considered a risk because I have a good technique learned from Saara's lessons as a foundation."

Saara is a truly phenomenal singing teacher. I came to the lessons as a complete novice and had never actually sung in front of anyone. Saara immediately made me feel very comfortable and relaxed with her sense of humor and great exercises. My singing skills have developed rapidly, and Saara has instilled in me a lot of belief that it is possible to learn to sing even at this age. I definitely recommend Saara's lessons to anyone interested in singing.
