About the Artists

Sarah Strable

Sarah Strable is a vocalist, yoga instructor, and healing arts practitioner in Greensboro, NC. Sarah began classical vocal studies at age 12 and started singing professionally at age 16 with the party band Timepiece. After performing with Timepiece for 6 years and earning a BA in vocal performance at Greensboro College, Sarah co-founded the music ensemble Certified Organic with Andy Eversole; the group performed a mix of folk, bluegrass, and Americana. Subsequently, during 9 years as part of the band Black and Blue, Sarah expanded her repertoire by singing pop, Motown, and R&B classics all over the East Coast. Sarah joined American Cruise Lines as a resident entertainer in 2023, sharing the gift of music on America’s rivers and oceans.

In addition to delivering stunning versions of the National Anthem for high profile events like the 2020 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, Sarah has been a prolific studio recording artist for many North Carolina-based song-writers and groups, including The Catalinas, Andy Eversole, Viva La Muerte, Banjo Earth Band, The Deluge, and Dan Shull. In 2008, Sarah’s lead vocal on the song “My Sweet Talkin’ Daddy” helped the song climb to number 8 on the beach music charts. Her vocals can also be heard on several film soundtracks, including the 2018 IMAX film, In Saturn’s Rings.

Currently, Sarah enjoys contributing to new recording projects and appearing with a wide variety of groups. You may find her dancing melodies over big bands like Durham-based NC Revelers Orchestra, entertaining cruise passengers, jamming out with rock bands, or entrancing spell-bound audiences with intimate jazz ensembles.

New in 2025, Sarah is the lead singer of rock and blues band, Radio Revolver!
Wesley Charles (McCleary-Small) is a native of Asheville who moved to Greensboro in 2013 when he started to attend UNCG for Choral Music Education. His performance experience ranges from musicals, operas, choral chamber ensembles, and singing with the occasional jazz/blues band. He is a 5th year public school Chorus Teacher and currently the Director of Vocal Music at Penn Griffin School for the Arts in High Point, NC. He received his Bachelor’s of Music in Music Education from UNCG in 2018. Along with performing in Greensboro, Wesley led This Community Sings, a singing event open to the community in 2018 & 2019. He has also been a part of the creative team for the annual ACOBE (A Celebration of Black Excellence) Festival since 2018, which celebrates Black Excellence among students and adults through the performing & visual arts, education, food, and culture.
