Sarah Engemann
STAFF WRITER
Hi there! My name is Sarah Engemann. I was born and bred on the southside of Chicago. I was raised on classics like Elvis, Frank Sinatra, and Sam Cooke. I discovered my love of country music when I was 5 years old dancing to Shania Twain, Kenny Chesney, and Garth Brooks. My first concert was Country Thunder in Wisconsin when I was 8 and I've been a concert addict ever since. You will often find me in the front row at a show around Chicago Ugly singing my heart out. I will gladly talk country music with anyone that will listen and I am excited to share my experiences with you all!
