“Never say never,” Sara said. “Of course it’s a dream of mine, but right now I’ve got a record label that is on my ass… so my number one priority right now is to work on my next record.”

“If the stars aligned and it worked out at some point – we’re talking about huge shoes to fill – it’s a pretty intimidating request. I’ve gotta go work on another record and go try to remember how to be Sara for a minute,” she said.
