Donโt let Sandyโs mom-next-door look fool you; her exuberant, sugary voice captures the bucolic spirit of the Central Queensland boondocks that captured her heart. The ball started rolling after winning a few local competitions in Gladstone, which led to the release of singles โTurn up the Radioโ and โLove you til the Day I dieโ. Sandy seems to be heading steadily onward, crafting her first album, Southern Skies. She really gets the room to shine with rolling sing-a-longs like โRiver of Tearsโ to snare-drum adorned ballads in โFrom the Bottom of our Heartsโ.
Itโs beautiful music right at home on country radio and homes looking for that tranquil atmosphere.
What might be considered the title track โUnderneath the Southern Skyโ is a quintessential Country anthem to rival the classics. Itโs an upbeat album, as far as Country goes, stacked with positivity and jovial chords. Thereโs a distinct lack of clever glibness or cynicism in Sandyโs music and I think that is part of its earnest charm, evoking shades of icons like Tammy Wynnette and Loretta Lynn. Sandy has big dreams, but they donโt involve ever leaving the pastoral life; she is simply passionate about writing and sharing her music rather than hungry for fame and acclaim. Music is clearly part of Sandyโs makeup and, with Country meaning so much to her, weโre sure weโll hear more quality contributions in due time.
