Sharon Sable and E. Shawn Qaissaunee is “drawing crowds and sending them home happy" says the Somers Point Jazz Society. Already a veteran of the music business, Sable has recorded with Babyface, Boyz II Men, Pink and other international pop stars. Sharon's love of melody and instrument have led her to explore all genres of music. “Her voice is a gift... phraseology is pitch perfect... and her performance implores us to follow" (- Delaware Today Magazine). E. Shawn Qaissaunee, a Berklee College of Music Alumnus, has performed or recorded with David Bromberg, Benny Golson, Terry Tyler, and opened for McCoy Tyner and Al Green, to name a few. He has been in demand as a multi-instrumentalist and composer for nearly twenty years and played many festivals including the Clifford Brown, Rehoboth Beach, and Cape May fests. He is sought out for his talents on guitar, bass, piano and both the rubab and dutar, instruments from his native Afghanistan. Shawn is known for his musical sensitivity, lyricism and spirited drive to create excitement among listeners and fellow musicians. “Qaissaunee's ability to transcend the confines of a single style of music speaks volumes of his skills as an artist... one is immediately struck by the versatility and breadth of talent Qaissaunee possesses" —Sheldon T. Nunn
