Sarah Quin Eaglesfield (born 20 May 1979) is an English singer/songwriter in the alternative rock band Flightside and a conspiracy theorist.
Musical career
Eaglesfield first shared her music online for free in 1994[1][2] on the webserver at Brunel University, using webspace assigned to students who had left their courses to accommodate the large filesizes. The URL on Flightside's first EP linked directly to her username. She made a number of guest appearances on the UK ITV show cyber.café.[3][4]
Eaglesfield contributed lyrics to Dave Stewart's track, Love Tower[5], and co-wrote a song called Ex Facto Ring with comedian Matt Richardson during X-Factor UK, which was screened on ITV2 in the UK in September 2013. She also regularly collaborated with her mentor, Nikki Sudden, in the final years of his life.[6]
Eaglesfield has listed her early influences as These Immortal Souls, Swell Maps, The Damned, Robyn Hitchcock, Jellyfish, James, Suicide Blonde and The Wonderstuff.[7]
Digital platforms
In 2001, she co-founded MusicAndSex TV, a direct-to-fan music video member website with Duran Duran guitarist Warren Cuccurullo,[citation needed] and also assisted him with the Missing Persons Lost Tracks album.[8]
In 2007, she established RockAffairs as a digital platform where artists could share their music without any fees and receive a profit share from paid membership, with funding provided by Duran Duran's Andy Taylor.[9][10][11]
In November 2011, Eaglesfield received funding from the Chilean Government through their Start-Up Chile scheme to establish a record label to aid Chilean artists break into Europe[12][13], and Flightside had a short reunion, releasing two EPs.[14]
News analysis and political activism
Since 2013, Eaglesfield has occasionally appeared on television and radio as a news analyst. In 2013, she appeared on I Love Chile News, breaking down conspiracy theories surrounding the Boston Marathon Bombing[15]. In 2018, she provided commentary on the Russian Collusion for WION TV.
She has also been politically active, with a focus on protection of freedom of speech. Eaglesfield's tweets were used as evidence by the defence in the PJS v News Group Newspapers Supreme Court hearing regarding an anonymised privacy injunction[16], and she is a founder of the "Yes, Less Censorship" movement on Twitter.[17]
In November 2020, whilst working as a senior data scientist at DHSC, Eaglesfield crowdsourced a project to Audit the Vote in the 2020 US Elections.[18] [19]. Donald Trump's legal team and representatives of Sidney Powell approached her to submit expert witness statements for their cases across multiple states. Her Framework for Forensic Auditing of Election Integrity has since been implemented in districts across Utah, Arizona and Colorado.
Sarah later moved to UKHSA, where she was the data science lead for LAMP testing during the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK, developing a digital twin model to ensure high availability of LAMP testing was maintained during machine outages and staff shortages.
Alongside her governmental work, Sarah has also worked as a part-time researcher for the Louder with Crowder podcast since 2021.[20]
