Gina Saputo and Macain Treat bring to life a jazz “what if” that fans have dreamed about for decades. Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald never recorded a full album together, yet they were great admirers of one another and shared strikingly parallel careers that helped define the golden era of American jazz. Gina, a celebrated jazz vocalist known for her expressive storytelling and classic style, joins forces with Macain, whose warm, swinging delivery and deep love of the Great American Songbook make him a natural counterpart. Together, they imagine the record that never was, asking the irresistible question: if Frank and Ella had sung duets together, which songs would they choose? Through playful banter, heartfelt moments, and inventive duets drawn from both catalogs, Gina and Macain bring this unrealized collaboration vividly to life, honoring the spirit, elegance, and joy of two of the greatest voices in jazz history.

 

Gina Saputo is a globally recognized jazz vocalist whose “alto voice of velvet, sounding street wise like Carmen McRae yet also as strong as Sarah Vaughan” (Jazzweekly) has captivated audiences worldwide.
