Sarah McLachlan honoured with Canada Post stamp

British Columbia-based singer-songwriter Sarah McLachlan’s achievements are being honoured with a Canada Post commemorative stamp.

The corporation has announced that an unveiling of the stamp will take place with the artist at the Sarah McLachlan School of Music in Vancouver next Tuesday.

McLachlan is a Grammy and Juno Award-winning musician who has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide. 

Canada Post says her musical style features a fusion of pop and folk that spawned hits including Building a Mystery and Angel.

Earlier this year, McLachlan went on tour to celebrate 30 years since her third studio album, Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, was released.

Correction, May 16, 2024: An earlier version of this video included concert footage from a performer who was not Sarah McLachlan. It has been updated.

Later this month, she will be inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame.

She previously earned a place in the Canadian Music Hall of Fame in 2017 and was appointed an officer of the Order of Canada in 1999.

The Sarah McLachlan School of Music was established by the singer in 2022 to offer inclusive and barrier-free access to music education for children and youth.
