The Music Fix
Risa is supported by Sarah Dixon, a Manchester based singer/songwriter who combines insightful lyrics, graceful guitar and a voice that cannot fail to wow. Currently one of Manchester’s best kept secrets, her songs have a depth and emotion beyond her years. The music she makes is euphoric, yet bittersweet. Often intimate, always engaging, she is truly a star in the making.
