Season 21 kicks off with the return of a JAZZ ROOM favorite. Renowned vocalist Sasha Masakowski, and her six-piece young virtuosic jazz ensemble performs a tribute to Bossa Nova legend, Antonio Carlos Jobim and the music of Brazil.
Sasha Masakowski, daughter of luminary jazz guitarist Steve Masakowski, was born and raised in New Orleans. She was listed as one of 12 jazz artists to watch in 2019 by Paste Magazine, and has received accolades from Vanity Fair, Downbeat, and Jazz Times. Since 2018, Sasha has performed as a bandleader at Cotton Club Tokyo, Blue Note (NYC), Jazz at Lincoln Center Shanghai, Jazz Standard (NYC), Detroit Jazz Festival, SF Jazz Center, Copenhagen Jazz Festival, Bird’s Basement (Melbourne) and San Jose Jazz Festival, among others. She has released several albums under her name, as well as her electro-pop monikers Hildegard and Tra$h Magnolia, where she composes, produces, and plays many instruments to craft her intricate, original music.
In 2021 Sasha produced an album for renowned Thai singer, Rasmee, and two songs hit the top 10 charts in Thailand. She frequently returns to Southeast Asia to tour with Rasmee, produce for other Thai pop and hip-hop artists, and eat lots of food. Since 2020, Sasha has worked extensively with Nicholas Payton, recording and touring with his project “New World Order.” During the pandemic, Sasha and Nick had a weekly duo concert, live-streamed via Blue Note NYC.
