Sarah Hobbs is living her dream. From humble beginnings in Jefferson, to attending college at Texas A&M University-Commerce, she's now making a name for herself as a strong voiced, independent Texas singer and songwriter.

With a new EP release slated for early 2017, Hobbs is regularly touring  and getting her name and face before music fans worldwide (She's part of an impressive lineup at the December Texas Music Takeoverevent in London, England). She was excited to return to her College roots in Commerce, and met with Notably Texan to talk about her music and life.

Sarah's newest single features fellow Texas artist Sam Riggs:

See Sarah's website for more about Sarah, including links to her social networking, and listen to Notably Texan weekdays from Noon-3pm on KETR.
