Turquoise Girl

by Sarah Allen

A tune written for my daughter, Maisy, who loves the colour turquoise – and loves many things that are turquoise, mostly to do with the sea, such as surfing and swimming.

Sarah is best known as a founder member of award-winning flute-based Anglo-Irish quartet, Flook, who will be celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2025. Though originally classically trained, Sarah’s first outings as a professional musician saw her playing alongside legendary free jazz drummer, John Stevens, whose approach to music challenged everything she had previously learned. Onwards from there, she joined ramshackle political big band, The Happy End, and the much loved The Barely Works. Sarah has also played with The Waterboys, Oysterband, Show of Hands, Phil Cunningham and many others.
