Sandy’s happy place! Singing ALTO in this clip from a Los Angeles session, May 2024. (Center mic on left.)

VOCAL DEMO

 

    As a group session singer, Sandy has had years of experience dialing in a seamless blend, no matter the style. Since moving to Orlando, she’s continued to record for her L.A. clients, primarily in her home studio, for projects including cast albums of musicals, kids’ TV tunes, and octavos for various publishers. You can also find her performing in Central Florida for various live events, including Orlando’s epic “Christmas Is” productions. With an intense classical piano background, she is able to sight-sing, and also enjoys the creativity of vocal producing, arranging and even conducting, finding great joy directing studio kids and peers, along with bands and choirs as long-time worship leader.
