Meet Sabrina Gauer
Sabrina Gauer, 21, of Dansville.

Sabrina Gauer has boundless energy. The 21-year-old songstress is recording her first official EP while working full time at the outpatient registration desk at Noyes Memorial Hospital in Dansville, Livingston County.

Gauer, who plays guitar and piano, is collaborating with producer Jesse Sprinkle and Bluebrick Recording in Avon, Livingston County, to meld her Christian lyrics with an alternative rock sound (www.myspace.com/sabrinagauer)

"I'm waiting to see where the music takes me," says the 2008 Nazareth College graduate. "The Rochester area has a lot of potential for the music scene." The album is scheduled for release in late December.

Gauer also finds time to teach a theater class for home-schooled students, leads worship services for the youth group at Elim Christian Church in Lima, Livingston County, and organizes a bi-weekly music café in her hometown of Wayland, Livingston County.
