They aren't sick of Sarah -- actually, they love Sarah.

The band, Sick of Sarah, was named when lead singer Abisha Uhl, 25, was talking to her roommate, Sarah, who was complaining that she didn't like her name, that she was "sick of Sarah." Uhl was inspired to use it as the name of her band, which originally was Sparkle Motion. After learning there were hundreds of other bands with the same name, they decided to go by Sick of Sarah.

Sick of Sarah, an all-girl band of boundless energy met through mutual friends in 2005. They are releasing their self titled debut album in summer of 2008. The band which has a strong local following in their hometown of Minneapolis are beginning to draw attention nationally. It was after winning the MTV virtual Kaya?s Battle of the Bands they released a single ?Bittersweet? through LA indie Adamant Records. That single caught the attention of Spin Magazine which compared them to the Breeders and Sleater-Kinney in a ?Buzzcatcher? story.

BIO
Hailing from Minneapolis and formed in November of 2002, Amanda Harris (Vocals), Ian Severson (Guitar, Backing Vocals), Eric Rotter (Bass, Backing Vocals) and Joe Rotter (Drums) have created a unique style of aggressive rock that?s been described by numerous fans and critics alike as the ?perfect blend of beauty and brutality.?
Prior to Gingerjake, Amanda was making a name for herself as a solo artist while Ian, Eric and Joe were members of the now defunct band Two Ton Crutch. When a mutual friend introduced them, the chemistry was instant. They?ve been writing and performing ever since.
In only their 7th show, they placed 2nd in the Twin Cities hard rock station's 93X Battle of The Bands. They then went on to play the station's annual 93X-Fest in Somerset, Wisconsin, sharing the stage with such bands as Sum 41, Taproot, CKY, and many more. Since then, they?ve embarked on a non-stop assault of the Minneapolis/St. Paul and greater Midwest club scene. To this day they continue to stretch deeper into the Midwest playing shows in Iowa, Wisconsin, South Dakota, Nebraska, Illinois, Kentucky and beyond.
In late 2003, Gingerjake journeyed to Orange County, CA where they hooked up with Producer/Engineer Cameron Webb, who has engineered albums for 311 and Godsmack and produced So Cal punk legends Social Distortion. They r
