Sarah Kaiser: feeling, passion and transparency. The Berlin native sings her own mixture of jazz, soul and gospel - beyond cliché and with her own personal note. In close interaction with pianist and arranger Samuel Jersak Sarah develops her own songs and arrangements of well-known classics, sensitive and groovy - from Paul Gerhardt to Stevie Wonder.
Live, the band is completed by Lars Binder (drums) and Martin Simon (bass) and convinces with a wonderful feeling for both powerful and quiet tones.
