Said Sara is the eclectic project of San Francisco, USA-based artist David Benson. His latest single is an acoustic affair with plenty of emotional clout.

David’s music has been appearing on our blog since 2022, originally coming to our attention through his single Sea. We followed that up with a share of Same last year.

His latest Then There You Are explores the idea that our loved ones who have passed on are still out there watching us. Opening gentle and stripped-back, there’s plenty of space for David’s expressive vocals. A looping melody in the verse will stick with you and things build nicely to a dramatic instrumental climax.

Then There You Are is out now and you can check out its video below.
