Vocalist
Sachal Vasandani, aka
Sachal, delivers his first album of all-original material with 2015's
Slow Motion Miracles. Already known as a distinctive, cool-toned interpreter of jazz standards, here
Sachal finally takes his long-gestating pop creativity to its fruition with a set of jazz- and electronica-infused compositions that are all his own. Backed by a superb ensemble featuring trumpeter/multi-instrumentalist
Michael Leonhart, guitarist
Ryan Scott, bassists
Buster Hemphill and
David Wong, keyboardists
Taylor Eigsti and
Gerald Clayton, and drummers
Nate Smith and
Mark Guiliana,
Sachal delves deep into these often atmospheric, singer/songwriter-influenced tracks. Included on
Slow Motion Miracles is the single "No More Tears."
