Adi Sara writes songs because “the only truth I can seem to get my hands on is in the immediate moment of experience.” Most of her searingly honest songs are about moments – of heartbreak, confrontation, clarity, or disillusionment; moments when the story’s outcome remains uncertain and the questions unresolved. She transmutes raw emotional pain into precise lyrics and haunting melodies, in styles ranging from tender ballads to sultry jazz/blues to edgy alternative-folk.

Adi Sara has won awards as a songwriter and as a classically trained singer (“a voice that is staggeringly beautiful” – Cherwell, Oxford, UK). She has performed on CBC and campus radio; at the Winnipeg Folk Festival, Fringe Festival, and Mayworks; and in cafés, pubs, and theatres at home and in the UK. Recent appearances have included Shaw TV, City TV's Breakfast Television, two cabarets, three benefits, and the Brandon Folk Festival.

When not exploring the darker reaches of her psyche, Adi Sara has been known to pen hilarious satire ("sharp-edged...uproariously funny" - Winnipeg Sun).  She has also written and staged the musicals Flute Song (Vincent Massey Collegiate) and Charity (Old Fire Station Theatre, Oxford, England; "had the audience in fits of laughter...you'll be humming all the way home" - Daily Information); and the play-with-songs Out of My Head (Winnipeg Fringe Festival; “Kreindler adds depth and beauty to the play with five songs...you’ll want to listen to over and over” – Jewish Post).

A keen student of human nature, Adi Sara earned a doctorate in Psychology at 24 on a Rhodes Scholarship, but stayed in academia only long enough to write satire about it.
