Hey y'all. Thanks for visiting our myspace page.

This band has been together for almost three years now. We've recorded a couple of CD's (you can find them on iTunes and at my website - www.saragazarek.com), we've been to a couple of counties, performed more than a couple of shows, and plan to perform alot more!

We as a band do all of the arrangements together, and perform exclusively as a group, so the music has a spirit to it, and the band is tight. We strive to bring a contemporary edge to the jazz standards that we do, or a jazzy edge to the american standards that we have in our book. We're all pretty young and although we have a common love in jazz, we can't deny our love for Nick Drake, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor, Leonard Cohen, and all the other great songwriters out there. We just want to do good music and have fun doing it! Thanks for stopping by.

If you want the full bio, visit our website, www.saragazarek.com.


Here are a couple quotes for your enjoyment:

“She may well turn out to be the next important jazz singer”
Don Heckman – LA Times

"Return To You is one of the best albums to appear in 2007."
Joe Montague - jazzreview.com

“…A beautiful phrased and warmly expressive performance of jazz and pop standards”
Gene Stout – Seattle Times

"She is such an original and completely unpretentious singer, bringing a fresh vision to the jazz standards and the contemporary songs she chooses to sing."
Shannon West – SmoothViews

“Return to You is a complete gift that should endear Gazarek's fans even closer to her easygoing, youthful sound and charisma.”
Paula Edelstein –All Music Guide

“Gazarek seduces, conjures and cajoles elements from her songs with the aplomb of pro's long past”
Larry Sakin – blogcritics.com

“iPod worthy”
-Parade Picks, Parade Magazine

“On Return to You, Gazarek, a mere 25-year-old lies on the threshold of becoming a jazz great. Her style is all her own and her voice will enlighten the darkest of dispositions.”
Sari N.Kent – celebritycafe.com

“This sweet vocalist is going to knock you out.”
-midwestrecord.com

“…A delicacy unmatched by most of her contemporaries.”
Andrea Carter – Jazz Police

Number 3 Best New Artist, Jazz Times Readers Poll, 2005

"I can kiiiieiiick, and I'm 50!"
-Sally O'Malley
