Mer

Mer Sal has contributed her vocal style to recordings and gigs with giants, working across diverse projects and genres. Mer Sal has notably released an album full of special guests ranging from Scott Henderson to Pedro Martins to Danny Carey, with Los Angeles jazz synth kingpin Scott Kinsey, called "Adjustments." Mer Sal recorded on "Native Dancer Series" for Wayne Shorter, by Vera's Heartbeat, toured with We Speak Luniwaz: The Music of Joe Zawinul, sung on ARC Trio's records with Jimmy Haslip and John Daversa Big Band, and sang several tracks on The Dream - by Karl Sterling.
Performing live, Mer Sal is always supported by world class instrumentalists - for example, Scott Kinsey, Gergo Borlai, Hadrien Feraud, Jamie Kime, Gary Novak, Toshi Yanagi, Francisco Fattorusso, Charles Ruggiero, Travis Carlton, Jimmy Haslip, and several others!
Her sets can be a mixture of authentic soul, funk, and blues, or original fusion music involving vocals, with some of the most relevant fusion artists today!
Mer has been compared to other rising singers of the fusion, jazz, and blues scene, but what makes her unique is the line she walks so evenly between jazz fusion, midcentury American music, and 2000's R&B.
