One night hile enjoying a career as an actress, Sarah Partridge went to the Improv in Los Angeles with friends. A karaoke contest began and her chums urged her to participate, just for fun. Partridge, a jazz enthusiast, reluctantly agreed. Her voice captivated an L.A. booker, who assumed that she was a professional jazz singer. She was a smashing success and hasn’t taken a backward step since.
Currently leading a bicoastal life, Sarah has been spotted entertaining audiences at many notable east-coast haunts such as, New York’s Firebird Cafe, The Hideaway, Delmonico’s, The Jazz Standard and many others. L.A. jazz spots include, Catalina’s Bar & Grill, Spazio, and the Hollywood landmark, the Cinegrill.
Until his death in early June of 1997, Sarah could often be found sharing the bandstand with her pal, legendary jazz giant, Doc Cheatham. She was a fixture at his Sunday afternoon jazz brunches at New York’s Sweet Basil Restaurant. They also teamed at other local clubs such as Metropolis and New Jersey’s own, Trumpets.
