Native singer Jonathan Karrant returns home for a concert and he's bringing a friend with him, Grammy nominated singer Sacha Boutros.
The two vocalist, who perform frequently together will be singing some of the greatest duets ever written as well as songs from they're albums. Critics have acclaimed them the contemporary Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme.
"What is it that sets Sacha apart from the wannabes? Youthful spirit; spot-on intonation; phrasing, phrasing, phrasing; the ability to slightly alter a melody and not lose the intent of the composer; and, in the jazz world, that elusive "something" that separates a jazz singer from even a good pop singer." - George Fendel, Oregon Jazz Society
Sacha is recognized by music critics, peers, celebrities, and musical legends, Sacha is one of the top jazz artists today. Introduced by the great American entertainer Frankie Laine as his "ingénue," and as Protege of the Legendary Red Holloway Sacha has opened for and performed with Patti Austin, James Moody, Karrin Allyson, Julio Iglesias, Marvin Hamlisch, Chubby Checker, Ann Hampton Callaway, Patti Page, Kay Starr, and so many others.
California Review says - The era of the "crooner" is well alive just ask or better yet take in one of superb vocalist Jonathan Karrant's performances. A master at his craft! Karrant's album "On and On" hit #4 in jazz charts and he was just honored in the annual NYC Jazz/Cabaret Honors.
Reader magazine says - Jonathan Karrant works straight out of the American songbook with a level of manly confidence and jazz suave and bonhomie that was patented by Mel Torme himself.
