CRITICALLY
ACCLAIMED
With her debut album Do Right released in 2016, Sari Kessler has become a singular force in jazz, praised by critics for her recorded material and live performances alike. JazzTimes proclaimed her a “vital new voice,” stating, “Kessler maintains a welcome less-is-more approach that emphasizes the purity of her tone, with its enticing hint of duskiness, and the immaculate quality of her phrasing.” All About Jazz named her “a first-rate interpreter, (able) to tap into the marrow of a lyric and bring its essence to the foreground.”
