From Utah’s Bubble To A Bigger Stage
from Broke Boyz From Fresno · host Martin M
We sit down with Sadie Dahl to talk about growing up in Utah, finding confidence through a middle school talent show, and how violin training shaped her ear for riffs, runs, and melody. We also get real about songwriting blocks, impostor syndrome, and the post-The Voice opportunities that push her toward original music and purpose-driven projects. • Utah as a “beautiful bubble” with deep arts culture and supportive communities • Learning musical precision through classical violin and how it translates to vocal agility • The first big leap into singing publicly at a school talent show • Auditions, local competitions, and the path from American Idol attempts to The Voice • Using new visibility for gigs, fans, and a Cure For The Kids fundraiser project • Defining the “ultimate goal” as using music for good and reaching people who need it • New originals like “Song That’s Not About You” and “History” and what sparked them • Different songwriting methods: melody-first, lyrics-first, concept-first • Struggles with finishing songs, comparison, and building mental strength • Live performance notes: wanting a band, improving crowd work, and leaning on family support • Favorite weird tangents: strawberry candies, mint dislike, and the strawberry Oreo shake Follow her @Sadie.dahl on Instagram and TikTok Follow us @ brokeboyz_ff on Instagram and TikTokIntro Music by Rockstar Turtle- Broke Boyz (999)Johny Donatello- This Is Me (Unreleased)Christmas Intro Song by Nico
