“Sex and the City” fans may think they see Sarah Jessica Parker walking around town this week, but they’re probably wrong.

It’s most likely female pop singer Sam Shaber, who’s playing at the Melting Point tonight as part of the Uncorked & Unplugged music series.

“One day it’s like suddenly I look like her,” said Shaber, a New York native who now lives in Los Angeles.

She said she mostly heard the comparison when the show was on the air.

“But when the DVDs came out, it happened again,” she said. “I think it’s more that Sarah Jessica Parker is on people’s minds.”

Now she said she gets compared to Parker almost every day of her life.

She said the comparison helps her most when she meets with music companies.

“I call them back and I’m like, ‘I’m the one who looks like Sarah Jessica Parker,’” she said. “And that’s when they remember me.”

She didn’t have to use that tactic when she wanted to work with Shawn Mullins.

She often plays in Atlanta at Eddie’s Attic and met Mullins through the music scene there.

“Apparently he’s attached to that club,” Shaber said.

She said it took about two years of being persistent with Mullins.

“It was a polite stalking,” she said.

After Mullins finally told her to send in material to him, Shaber said a little while later he contacted her.

“They listened to my music and related with it,” she said about his music company.

“They wanted someone who knew how to work on their own and knew the same lifestyle, which I do,” said Shaber, who often tours on her own and books her own shows.

After that, Shaber and Mullins worked on-and-off for six months on her latest studio album “Eighty Numbered Streets.”

“If you put it all together, it was only about six and a half weeks to make it, but it was actually six months because he was busy and I was busy,” Shaber said.

She will play songs from that album, along with her other music, tonight at the Melting Point – her Athens musical debut.

“The best shows are the ones that are big shows where no one knows you,” she said. “The are fresh meat.”

To understand more of what Shaber’s set will be like, she points to her live album “in my bones,” which was recorded in Chicago.

“It’s a snapshot of what my show is like,” she said.

Fellow female performers Kyler England (a pop singer from Los Angeles and long-time friend of Shaber) and Tin Cup Prophette’s Amanda Kapousouz will join Shaber for tonight’s event.

Shaber said during tonight’s sets, each of the women may join another on stage from time to time.

Bottles of wine are offered at half price tonight – a special that’s available at the weekly concert series.
