Sajé
An all-women vocal quartet, Säje are known for their nuanced, delicately rendered style of harmonized singing that draws upon their deep individual roots in jazz, folk, classical, and modern creative improvisation. They debuted to acclaim, picking up a Grammy nomination for their first single, 2020's "Desert Song." They featured the lyrical track on their eponymous 2023 full-length Säje.
Formed in 2019, Säje features the combined talents of Los Angeles-based singers Sara Gazarek and Erin Bentlage and Seattle singers Johnaye Kendrick and Amanda Taylor. Prior to forming, each of the members had distinguished themselves as adept and highly regarded solo artists. The group initially embarked on a period of collaborative creation, including a potent meet-up in Palm Springs that ultimately led to the writing of the group's debut single, "Desert Song." They made their live debut in January 2020 at the Jazz Education Network Conference in New Orleans. The performance led to a string of live appearances that helped raise the group's profile. In 2021, they garnered wider attention when "Desert Song" was nominated for Best Arrangement, Instrument and Vocals at the 63rd Grammy Awards. More acclaim followed, including winning the John Lennon Songwriting Contest Grand Prize Award for their second composition, "Wisteria," and picking up a 2021 nomination for Best Vocal Jazz Group at the Jazz Journalists Association Awards. In 2023, they delivered their full-length debut album, Säje, which found them backed by a cadre of instrumentalists, including drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, saxophonist Daniel Rotem, bassist Ben Williams, and pianist Dawn Clement. Featured on the album was a recorded version of "Desert Song," as well as covers of songs by the Bad Plus, Michael Kiwanuka, and the Beatles.
