"Hanahan plays with pure fierceness and lyrical conviction that makes you believe she could at will access the spirits of greats like Jackie McLean and John Coltrane." - DownBeat Magazine
One of the most electrifying new voices on the alto saxophone, Sarah Hanahan brings her fierce energy and fresh perspective to Black Cat for a special residency. A Juilliard grad and DownBeat 5-star artist, Sarah has already performed with legends like Jeff “Tain” Watts, Nicholas Payton, Jason Moran, and Dee Dee Bridgewater—and now she’s lighting up the stage with her own powerhouse band.
Hanahan’s sound blends fiery bebop roots with fearless modern expression, earning her comparisons to the greats while forging a path all her own. Her debut album Among Giants was named one of DownBeat’s Best Albums of 2024, and it’s no wonder—her live sets are a masterclass in soul, swing, and spontaneous fire.
