Sacha Vee EP Release Tour 2010 | christchurchmusic.org.nz

2nd February 2010
Sacha Vee is a unique vocalist making waves in the New Zealand music scene. The gutsy sound emerging from the blonde 24 year old is that of the classic black soul divas of the day, being commonly likened to Jill Scott and Billie Holiday.

With her Dutch/West Indian background, Sacha was surrounded by music from an early age. Her talent was discovered at the age of 16 when she was awarded Best Vocalist at the New Zealand Jazz Festival. Since then she has been making her presence known, performing at some of the best music festivals nationwide. Sacha has also opened for the likes of Shapeshifter, Hollie Smith and Harbour City Electric and collaborated with Devin Abrams on his latest Pacific Heights album 'In a Quiet Storm'.

After a year of hard work, Sacha is now ready to wow New Zealand with the release of her debut self-titled EP featuring the single ‘Patience’ which was rated no.1 on the Christchurch Bnet station RDU for several weeks. Co-produced by Sacha Vee herself and Oakley Grenell, the album is deep, soulful, and full of catchy choruses that could lend themselves easily into a potential hiphop remix. While the essence of her neo-soul style stays the same, her sound ranges from the cheeky sassy lines of ‘Trouble’, to the mellow grooves of ‘Honey Bee’ and the powerful attitude in ‘Wanna Rely’. The EP will be celebrated by a New Zealand wide release tour, where Sacha will prove that she is surely a superstar in the making.
