COMING

CalJAS Presents

GINA SAPUTO
CD Release Party
featuring
Matt Politano on piano

 
After much anticipation, Gina finally releases a new full album.  The record, DUETTO, features Gina’s long time pianist Matt Politano on 12 intimate tracks.  She sings a rare cut of Sarah Vaughan’s with I’m Scared and Frank Sinatra’s poignant ballad, I Could Have Told You, woven with familiar standards including A Foggy Day, Emily, Ain’t Misbehavin’, and many more.  Gina and Matt display a deep and playful connection with each song.  Matt Politano interacts with Gina’s warm understated approach to the voice in a camaraderie that can only be built with years of trust and friendship.
 
Duetto is not to be missed!
