Sasha Berliner is a musician, composer, producer, and band leader from San Francisco, CA. Sasha got her major start on the NYC scene shortly after moving there to attend The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music, when she debuted at NYC Winter Jazz Fest in 2018, followed soon after by Atlanta Jazz Fest and Burlington Jazz Fest in the same year. Sasha was the also first US recipient of the LetterOne “Rising Stars” Jazz Award in 2019, where she headlined 10 reputable jazz festivals throughout the U.S. And Canada.

She has gone on to headline international venues like Newport Jazz Festival, The Blue Note, Portland Jazz Festival, and Monterey Jazz Festival. She has also commissioned works for Modern Marimba (Sarasota, FL) and the SWR NewJAZZ Meeting (Baden Baden, Germany) as artist in residence for fall 2021, which resulted in her suite of music entitled “Tabula Rasa”, TBR May 2023 via the live concert at Enjoy Jazz Festival.
