With three solo albums to her credit, Sae has perfected an electrifying live show that keeps her in high demand and brings crowds to their feet after each performance.
Sae has an impressive international following, of particular fervor in Brazil, Japan, Berlin and London. She is loved and regarded so highly because of the fresh new sound she presents to the world, infusing soul, rock, Afro-Cuban, Dance, and unabashed, in-your-face singing that is rare with singers today. Her vocal style is very warm and inviting, and eager, very much her own trademark style. The sound has a diversity as rich as her cultured upbringing in New York City and of her mixed heritage of Native American,
Black and Puerto Rican. Sae's stage persona is strong, yet playful, lush and beautiful with massive appeal that transcends genres, ethnicities, geography and age groups.
