Sandra Phillips: A NOTE FROM SANDY >>click here<<
--"I close my eyes and feel my heart close to you...thank you God for keeping me in your arms and for your eternal love..." -Sandy
Supporting two solo CD releases, and Founder/owner of IndieByte.com, Sandy is an independent singer, songwriter and composer from St. Louis... her original songs draw life from the rich crosscurrents
of acoustic folk-rock, pop, and jazz music. The result is vibrant, current,
original music with an emotional and timeless feel...her unique approach to
this voyage of fantasy is a solo act that continually ascends.
In an interview and review of her album,
The Renegade wrote: "Sandra Phillips brings a
unique sound and vision to the St. Louis music scene, and to the
national New Age scene at large. She is worthy of industry attention."
Sandy's music has received airplay throughout
the US as well as Europe, Spain, Russia and Germany.
Her album Life's Journey has been distributed at
the SXSW Music Conference & Festival in Austin, Texas...
and her songs have been featured on 4 compilations.
Sandra's originality is evident through fresh and masterfully engaging melodies. Moving from dynamic, instrumentals and full-bodied pop songs to guitar driven voice numbers, the adept ingenuity of her original compositions, artistry and melodic poetry draw listeners into an intimate self-portrait where they may encounter a parallel with their own likeness. Her commitment is inspired by her faith, but her music extends beyond the boundaries of genre classification.
Bill Kostyan of TheNightGuide wrote: "Once you hear her music the
album becomes a "must have". The artist will not only generate
emotions but visions of emotional states. It's actually a unique
narration of different emotional states. No one, I mean no one
since Gershwin has painted such a beautiful picture for the eyes of my mind."
Sandra's CD, Life's Journey,
consists of a mixture of many styles,
including both vocal and instrumental tracks...introspective ballads and
mid-tempo to upbeat tunes. The album, Life's Journey and it's melodic,
upbeat and fresh sound is echoed by the title track. Life's Journey is
a distinctive blend of acoustic, pop, jazz and a slight r&b flavor
totally in tune with contemporary trends. The rhythms flow with harmony and eloquence.
Sandy is currently working on
new music for her next album slated for release sometime this fall,
and a few small projects for radio - as well as collaborating with guitarist Rob Perry (Hound Sound Productions). “Remembrance” (by Hound Sound Productions), A collaboration with Rob Perry and HSP Artist Autumn, was published by K.A.M.G/Universal Music Group for use in TV/Film.
