"I want to tell you how impressed I am at the job you have done. I truly appreciate your consistent level of communications with us. Very impressive. I have worked with many publicity/promotion persons over my career and you are amongst the very best. I could go on.... but you get the idea." - Bill Durst
"Sarah is totally professional and thorough. It's a pleasure to work with her!" - John Campbelljohn
"I've worked with Sarah French on seven albums now. It's been an incredibly positive experience and makes me wish I had signed up with her years ago. I've been releasing records for 12 years now and have released 75 albums in that time we've tried different publicists and tried no publicists. What I can tell you is this - these past seven albums have had more press interest probably then the previous 70 combined. It's incredibly rewarding to have that kind of response and also incredibly disappointing that it's taken this long for us to find Sarah French. There are no guarantees in this business but I would suggest that working with Sarah is money well spent."
- Mark Logan, Busted Flat Records
“The simple truth: Sarah French Publicity has helped me immensely to get my blues music heard in Canada and beyond. She’s great to work with, her work is great, and she knows how to get behind the mule to make things happen. I’m sure I’d still only be playing my guitar in my living room if it weren’t for her help as a premier blues publicist.” - Sugar Brown
"After speaking to a number of my peers, and industry professionals about what publicist to hire for my latest record "Send The Nightingale" - one name kept coming up - Sarah French. She is well respected, very organized and easy to get along with - so it is not surprising that she was able to get a lot of reviews for the new album. She was incredible under what unintentionally became a tight deadline, was able to reassure me during the process, and made this one of the most successfully released albums I have ever had. What makes Sarah special is that she is so amazing at her job and that she loves what she does. Months later I am still getting reviewed, and still charting on college radio. She yelled off of every mountain top that people should hear my new record - and I am forever thankful that they did!" - Samantha Martin (Samantha Martin & Delta Sugar)
"Sarah French runs an honest, thoughtful and professional publicity machine. I would recommend her to anyone looking for those things." - Kevin Breit
"When I asked for a publicist to work with on our record 'Checkered Past', CHLY's Billy Boy Lucas highly recommended Sarah French, simply saying " she's wonderful". Over 6 months, and multiple campaigns later it feels like family, and man was he ever right. She continuously kept us up to speed making sure we both had our daily itineraries. Sarah's strategies really helped us gain the traction and endorsement that our album required to reach a broader audience. Her commitment to the task is admirable and was the key ingredient in the overall results of our partnership."- The Harpoonist & The Axe Murderer

She's my friend, my former work-mate, and I'm proud of everything she's accomplished."- Richard Flohil, Canadian Music Industry Legend
