Sarah Jayne is a professional entertainer, producer and director with over three decades in the music industry. From a young age, her passion for performing was unmistakable. Growing up in Kent, she regularly performed with local musicians and created production shows at school, laying the foundations for a lifelong career on stage.
Her professional journey began early. At just 17, she travelled to Jersey to perform in the Great Legends Show, and by 19 she was appearing in a production show at The Sheraton Hotel in Kowloon, Hong Kong. These early opportunities opened the door to an international career that saw her perform across the world, from Norway to India and Sweden to Cyprus, working in theatres, on cruise ships and at leading venues and resorts throughout the UK and Europe.
After thousands of performances, Sarah Jayne is now recognised as Europe’s leading tribute to Dolly Parton. She is proud to be the only Dolly Parton tribute outside the USA to be endorsed by Dolly herself, who praised her live on the BBC’s One Show.
Her career includes the unique honour of being booked at London’s O2 Arena during Dolly Parton’s Blue Smoke Tour in 2014, and previously on the Better Day Tour in 2011, where she entertained and met VIP guests. Meeting Dolly in person, who warmly welcomed Sarah and her family, remains one of the most treasured moments of her career. In addition, Kenny Rogers recognised Sarah Jayne and her show alongside Andy Crust as Europe’s leading Dolly and Kenny tribute.
Beyond Dolly, Sarah is an exceptional vocal impersonator with the ability to capture the sound and style of artists such as Cher, Madonna and Tina Turner. Known for her professionalism, dedication and work ethic, she continues to deliver outstanding performances worldwide.
Away from the stage, Sarah is a proud mum to Lucy Jayne and lives in Ashford, Kent with her husband and business partner Andy. With many more years ahead in the industry, audiences are invited to join her ongoing journey with the Country Superstars show.
