Savoir Faire

With a voice straight out of the jazz age, Savoir Faire brings the modern existential crisis into a realm of retro-noir.​​​​​​​​​
Studying jazz guitar in college, Savoir Faire soon discovered the duets of Joe Pass and Ella Fitzgerald, shaping her approach to both harmonic and melodic lines on guitar and voice. She spent years performing as a lounge singer and jazz guitarist before adding the last few ingredients that would form the aesthetic of Savoir Faire: the influence of dramatic 60s noir and 90s alternative rock. With lush and syrupy vocals, biting lyricism, and searing guitar parts that hint at her Persian heritage, Savoir Faire confronts wistful nostalgia with modern rage in her upcoming full-length album, Hopeless Nostalgic.
