  • In my last year of touring, and the many live streams during this pandemic, I have found myself wanting to close my shows with this iconic song by Louis Armstrong. Many of my original songs deal with the darker stories and emotional struggles of life and this timeless song is a hopeful reminder of all the good in the world. I'm very grateful to be working again with Andrew Benincasa, as well as Lindsey Morano, who have collaborated to create this wonderful vision for my rendition of the song.
    What A Wonderful World
    I see fields of green
    Red roses too
    I see them bloom
    For me and you
    And I think to myself
    What a wonderful world
    I see skies of blue
    Clouds of white
    The bright blessed day
    The dark sacred night
    And I think to myself
    What a wonderful world
    The colors of the rainbow
    So pretty in the sky
    Are also on the faces
    Of people going by
    I see friends shaking hands
    Sayin how do you do
    They’re really saying
    I love you
    I hear babies crying
    I’ll watch them grow
    They’ll learn much more
    Then I’ll ever know
    And I think to myself
    What a wonderful world
    And I think to myself
    What a wonderful world

      Always listening Sawyer. I hope you realize how your approach to music today is so appreciated. Definitely gives the listener the feeling you are singing to each and everyone of us. People like you are hard to come by in music these days. That's why Dylan is still an icon to my generation. You are far beyond your years. Speaks volumes to those listening. Maybe on a road trip we will drop by to see if you are in the area playing. Would love to see you in live performance. Your worth it. Till then peace.

      I would love to see what you could do with Tom McDonald! A think that would be an amazing collab! You're both independent artists, you're both magnificently gifted, and you both give off a sense of sincerity and integrity that's rare and special. Your styles are different, but sometimes that's where the magic comes in.

    Dear Sawyer, I took my now 85 yr old blind mother to a concert you did in Norfolk, CT several years ago for her birthday because she fell in love with your voice when you were on "The Voice" TV competition. I'm a 64 year old grandma myself and I love your music very, very much. You are an incredible God-gifted artist. Keep right on doing your thing YOUR way. It's WONDERFUL! 👏💗

    Sawyer is really an amazing and brilliant artist! His vocal and guitar playing are perfect! But I want to highlight his authentic understanding and video conception in that work! He's a FREE artist, absolutely a FREE one! In a difficult time that the world is living, he conceives a totally politically incorrect version of a legendary song could be used in a blase way, showing a fantasy world, but that wouldn't represent his original musicianship! How many messages and critics shameless exposed in this video, it isn't anyone who is brave enough to do that! At the end of it all, some hopeness is offered through the fraternal coziness! As he says: "there is always hopeness in the sadness"! Once again, an outstanding job! 👏🎶🔝🙏❤

    And I think to myself: What a wonderful world
    I see skies of blue and clouds of white
    The bright blessed days, the dark sacred night
    And I think to myself: What a wonderful world
    The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
    Are also on the faces of people going by
    I see friends shaking hands, saying: How do you do?
    They're really saying: I love you!
    I hear babies crying, I watch them grow
    They'll learn much more, than I'll never know
    And I think to myself: What a wonderful world
    Yes, I think to myself: What a wonderful world
