Sasha Masakowski

Sasha Masakowski grew up in a musicians home in a musicians city. Her father, Steve Masakowski, is a celebrated jazz guitarist; her mother Ulrike is a concert pianist and visual artist. Sasha describes her childhood as a ‘very colorful family dynamic’, which was mirrored on the street by the cultural vibrance of the city and the specific way people celebrate life (and death) with music and art. Yet it was not until she moved away to pursue her career that Sasha understood the full value and unique beauty of the city.

It is this understanding that forms the foundation of Sasha’s approach to her latest project – Art Market. After touring the world with many and releasing music with other projects – Tra$h Magnolia, Hildegard – Sasha brings her current state of musical evolution to the forefront. Her move to Brooklyn had a profound influence on her sound, and the album is a look back to the foundation from her new perspective. The album title is a reference to the beauty and diversity of the street market, where each presentation is a carefully crafted expression of identity presented to the passersby. The album is a reflection of that; a variety of songs presented in a careful collection.
