Who is Sabrina Dias?

Sabrina Dias hails from Brazil but later moved to New Jersey with her parents. Sabrina’s parents emigrated from Brazil and she was raised in a religious household, singing in church and learning to play drums and guitar. Sabrina reportedly earned a Star-Ledger Scholarship for the Performing Arts in 2013 as a senior at Arts High School in Newark. New Jersey. She went on to earn a degree in music and master’s in education. She currently resides in East Orange. The versatile singer-songwriter’s Instagram bio tells us that she is a “PK-8th Grade Music Teacher”.

For her blind auditions, Sabrina belted out her rendition of Antônio Carlos Jobim’s ‘The Girl From Ipanema’. Unfortunately, it was only John Legend who turned around his big red chair as the rest of the coaches seemed less interested in her. While praising the crooner, John Legend on Episode 5 said, “I love that song, it’s such a classic and I was just in a good mood as soon as I heard the music start,” Legend added, “And what I loved about your version is you introduced some edge to it and it was really cool, distinct.”
