Martinis Above Fourth Table + Stage and Sher Krieger Events present Jazz Recording Artist Sacha Boutros in her newest show, "Sacha Sings Streisand" in San Diego on Thursday, March 20.
In an amazingly short amount of time, Boutros, a San Diego native, went from gigging at a few San Diego clubs and U.S. festivals to touring the world and back, to having her recordings hit the top of the charts in Japan and on e-music, to even receiving a Grammy and Latin Grammy nod for 2008 and 2013 for Jazz and Latin Jazz. Boutros brings her talent, charm and beautiful voice to Martinis Above Fourth | Table + Stage to share songs from the Barbara Streisand catalogue. Sacha has always wanted to pay tribute to her longtime idol Streisand and this evening provides that opportunity. She will be appearing for a one-night only performance on Thursday, March 20 at 8:00 pm.
"Sacha Boutros can sing the pants off a song like nobody else." - Carol Banks Weber, National Jazz Critic Examiner.com
Recognized by music critics, peers, celebrities, and musical legends, Sacha Boutros is poised to become the next superstar. The late, great American entertainer
Frankie Laine had her sing at his 90th birthday celebration in 2002, with his orchestra made up of
Herb Jeffries and Mundell Lowe, and called her his "ingénue." She's also opened for and performed with
Patti Austin,
James Moody, Red Holloway, Karrin Allyson,
Julio Iglesias,
Marvin Hamlisch,
Chubby Checker,
Ann Hampton Callaway,
Patti Page,
Kay Starr, and so many others.
At the Martinis Above Fourth performance Boutros will sing a selection of Streisand songs including hits from Funny Girl, The Way We Were, On a Clear Day, and other favorites. A fantastic LA-based rhythm section will accompany Sacha as they dazzle the audience with a night of everything Barbra. Boutros shares that she has always loved and admired
Barbra Streisand. As she says, " Talent, beauty, brains, actress, director, producer; Streisand is one of a kind. I've seen every one of her movies and I've seen her in concert. I'm looking forward to performing some of her most popular songs as well as some that are close to my heart." You can read more about and hear Sacha at

"What is it that sets her 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's album, "Simply Sacha," would become the vocalist's calling card to the world. It was the most downloaded Latin jazz release on
emusic.com, was nominated for two Los Angeles Music Awards as "Best Latin Vocal" for her original song, "Amor Imposible," and "Best Vocal," hit number seven on the Japan music charts, enjoyed heavy airplay at Japanese Airlines, and earned a Grammy nod as best new jazz album. To this day, the album's considered among the top 10 jazz and Latin jazz albums of 2008 in the U.S. and Japan. Her latest CD, "Sacha: NY After Dark," a savory collection of old and new world jazz wrapped in dreamy remembrance, reminiscent of the hustle and bustle of the beloved Big Apple and its jazzy sounds after dark.
