Focus Your Audio (Vancouver) // http://focusyouraudio.ca

FYA was built on a crossroads of two colliding paths. Standing there facing each other, a framework of effortless collaboration started to quickly take shape. Stepping back Sarah & Bobby began marvelling at this beautiful structure of moving acoustic guitar riffs, coupled with poetic lyrics that bare heart and soul. They decided to venture off the roads that led them to each other and create a path where there was none. After founding and working the last 3 years in Modern Day Poets, Bobby immediately went to work on Focus. “ Being in Modern Day Poets was a great experience and I enjoyed every minute, but something was missing, now I’ve come to realize what that is. This project is what I’ve been waiting for.” Having spent her childhood involved in her family band, Sarah spent much of her time writing and collaborating with those closest. After taking a break from performing, Sarah relocated to Vancouver and began a musical partnership with Bobby, blossoming into a duo that was a perfect match in every way. Together Focus Your Audio brings an experience of songwriting and musicality that is often left behind in today’s fast pace society. Melodic vocals and heartfelt guitar leave the audience wanting more.
