Sandy Cressman

San Francisco-based vocalist Sandy Cressman made a name for herself as a true devotee of Brazil’s greatest contemporary composers, interpreting songs by post-bossa masters like Milton Nascimento, Hermeto Pascoal, Gilberto Gil, and Filó Machado in Rio-accented Portuguese. The friendships forged with Brazilian musicians during her musical travels inspired her recent album “Entre Amigos”, which features collaborations with such illustrious friends as the celebrated Pernambuco frevo composer/bandleader Spok, rising Brazilian-American guitarist Ian Faquini, pianist/composers Jovino Santos Neto, Antonio Adolfo.  

Sandy’s Keys shows will go from the classic to contemporary Brazilian composers, spanning Cressman’s vast repertoire, and will feature Jeff Cressman on Trombone, Anne Sajdera on piano (May 31st), Murray Low on piano (June 1), David Belove on bass and Dillon Vado on drums.
