Hi Sandra,
I just want to say hello to you from Houston, Tx and wishing you all the best in all your endevours. Your husband Debo, gave me a call this morning and believe me it has made my day. What a blessed husband you have. Thanks to God for this.
Anyway, keep up your good work and remain Blessed.

Sandra,
let me start off by saying how thoroughly I enjoyed this Friday night
and your performance at Jazz Wine Cigar in XinTianDi. Loved it! The
same holds when I listen to your CD - great stuff!
So, naturally, I would like you to keep me updated on any upcoming
opportunities to see you perform in Shanghai again in the next weeks
and months. I shall stay here until late October and might have a
company function or two coming up where I might get back to you for
enriching our evening with some great Jazz music, if you don't mind.
Hope to hear from you, enjoy Shanghai and see you sometime soon again.
Sebastian
Hi Sandra:
Just wanted to tell you how great you are and how much you've taught me: Stage presence, presentation, leading, tone, time and the warmth you provide.
Danny Healy
The Jewel of Shanghai...
I love you more than Greg and more then Ross.
Your strut is sexy and your voice in sensual and powerfully deep and soulful.
Love You Always,
Andrew
Hi Sandra!
We loved your performances at the Bund Centre in Shanghai.....
and Ross would love to propose to you, he thinks you have the voice of an angel.
Hi Sandra,
How are you over there in China? I hope everything is well. We miss you here in Texas and looking forward to seeing you soon. Say hi to my big uncle Debo I know he's there with you right now.
Till I hear from you stay blessed.

Hi Sandra Kaye,
The people enjoying your performances over there in Shanghai, China are so blessed to have you in their midst. Although we speak practically everyday, I still miss you more than words can express and I anxiously await your return home. Take good care of yourself and continue to shine like the beautiful diamond we all love and look forward to behold.
Love Always,
Nicole Young
P.S. I guess I'll just hop on a plane and come there to enjoy your beautiful gift of song.
Sandra,
I am so happy to hear from you also, and so soon. It's good to know that you are doing so well
in China. I know that you have also worked in Turkey and other places. You have truly become
an international star. You certainly deserve success, and I am very proud of you. America's
loss is China's gain. Here's wishing you much continued success.
I have been teaching and playing a few really good gigs this year, that is as good as a gig can
get in Dallas. Otherwise things are going pretty well. I will share the news of your adventures
in China with others who know you.
Let's do stay in touch.
All the best,
Roger
Joe McBride. the name still haunts me from my days at Webster University. He is an amazing talent, and I tried desperately to keep up with his playing, style, and love for people and music.
I was in the Theatre department at Webster University, but had been playing Jazz Piano for most of my Jr. and Sr. High school years. It was at Webster, in the mid-80's where I would work in the recording studio, and practice piano in the basement of the Music house where he taught me that music was not a competition, but an enjoyment. Being brought up on Bobby Militelo, SpyroGyra, and the whole Western NY jazz scene, I was constantly berating myself as a musician. Joe, in a single sentence, taught me that it wasn't how "Good" you where in comparison (in this case to himself) but how much you enjoy the music you play.
I am now in the computer industry, and to this day remember the days he allowed me to play on the Juno synth, and hang with him. He is the greatest influence I had in my short-lived musical career...and the reason I enjoy playing (for myself and friends) to this day.
Sooner than later in Jesus name we shall meet through your husband, Debo that nice man of God. Please note it, both of you are about to experience another joyful level in your matrimony. Amen.
Hi Sandra,
I am a friend of Debo and lover of Jazz music. I was made to understand you are currently on tour in China. I logged into your site and I'm very impressed. This made me send you this little message. I wish you all the best in your endeavors and God's Blessings. I hope to meet you one day. In the mean time I will be listening to your Jazz music and even pass it on to friends.
Thanks and remain Blessed,
Joshua Olusegun Atiba
Sandra Kaye,
Hello!! How are you today? I am good. Working very long hours lately, but that is just part of it.
I was listening to a jazz station out of San Diego this morning and I heard this voice singing "Is You Is or Is You Ain't" and I thought to myself- "that sounds like Sandra Kaye". I clicked over and found that it was Dinah Washington!!! I laughed to myself and realized that I really miss hearing you sing. (I also laughed that I didn't know that it was Dinah Washington)
When you return home, will you be performing in the clubs like you have previously?
I hope that you are enjoying your time in China. But please remember, your fans at home love and miss you!!
Take care and let me hear from you!!
Love,
Sharron
Hello Sandra, I hope you are well in China. We miss you and Debo. The girls are getting big. Give me your email address and I'll send you pictures. Dionne and all the girls sends their love.
Love,
Robert

Sandra,
Hello from the Palace Arts Center in Grapevine! Long time no see! You played for us in the Lancaster Theatre a couple of years ago and I'm wondering if I could interest you in a return performance. I still get requests for you - you and James Gilyard played and blew everyone away.
I am looking for dates in April 2008 - for Jazz Appreciation Month. Can you let me know what your availability looks like on Thursday the 24th and if you are booking that far out?
Thanks very much,
Elspeth
Dear Sandra Kaye:
You're the greatest jazz/blues singer in the world, and a very beautiful friend.
I Love You Madly,
Melissa

Hello Sandra Kaye ! Thanks for your CD.
Hi,
Sandra this is your cousin Gayla in Dallas. I need to hear from you and the rest of the family.
To Sandra:
Being with you makes me happy, and your singing is great.
Thank you,
Nob
Sandra this is John Geer from the Hideaway in Dallas I used to come in late and hear that beautiful voice of yours. I live in Laguna Beach now and I would love to hear from you.
Take care John
Hi Sandra,
Your husband came into the Jockey store in Williamsburg, IA where I am the store manager and we got to talking and he told me about his lovely and talented jazz singing wife! I asked him if you ever came to Iowa and he told me you were over seas and said the next time he came through he would bring me a CD! I am very excited to hear it!
I sung in a couple of bands in California when I was younger and loved singing blues and rock and always wanted to try jazz. But I think that would be something I would have to do in private! :)
Take care of yourself and God bless you and your family!
It's been too long since we've played together. I've got some video somewhere of us with Rodney Bowens, Tim Jones, Doug Berry, and Larry Davis. You sang so GOOD! Your rendition of "Almost Like Being In Love" was the best. Much love...
Regards: You are the most soultry and comfortable performer live that I remember being a part of the audience.
Mark
Hello Sandra Kaye,
Got the CD and thank you so much. Got here today and we love it.
See you soon.
It's my pleasure to share my thoughts about this beautiful songbird,who goes by the name of,"Sandra Kaye". I first met her when she was performing with the late, Onzy Matthews and his Big Band Orchestra. The memory I cherish most of Sandra is when she performed at the Morton Myerson Symphony Hall For The Performing Arts here in Dallas, Texas. The Gala event for the evening was a unique opportunity for many stars to honor the life and legacy of Comer Cottrell (former founder/owner of the Proline Corp.). Although many stars turned out..including the late Johnny Taylor..the stage was reserved to be transformed with a touch of Paris by this great songstress. From the moment she hit the stage, the entire performance hall was magically transported to a European atmosphere, where we were all blessed to witness a performance suitable for the Queen of England. I will always remember the magnitude of grace and elegance she poured out all over the stage during her outstanding performance. It sure made me feel like a King that night and a very grateful one for the blessing of such a great memory. I love Sandra Kaye along with so many others and I'll always be very proud to share even a tiny space in her life. May God continue to bless her with much continued success.
Jerone Roy
Sandra:
Since your birthday is November 4; I and my family wish you Long Life, Prosperity, Good Health and many more GOD's blessings.
We (your Fans) in St. Louis, Missouri and Japan wish to be with you in Dallas, TX. to celebrate with you.
GOD bless.
I live in St. Louis, Missouri and i love Jazz. Please, let me know of your next jazz session.
Thanks and GOD bless.
Hi Lady,
When Paula and I attended your last DMA Atrium concert it was very
apparent that you have not neglected your craft.
That is the one thing that separates you from other singers in the area.
Other singers spend about 90% of their time on their careers and 10% on
their craft.
As an artist you have grown tremendously. When I first worked with
you-you were GREAT!
You are now SUPERB!
Curtis & Paula
Hello Aunt Sandra,
Just wanted to say hello to you and Uncle Debo, and give kudos for the work on the website.
Hopefully, I will have the opportunity to hear you one of these days, when I happen to be in Dallas, or you in Houston. I still play a little, and can always learn from and play along with one of the best.
Bye and Godbless
Okiki
Hi Ms. Sandra,
Just thought I'd drop a line or two to say "Hello" !!
I'm a jazz fan and i listened to one of your songs at a jazz club in Boston. So i decided to check out your web site. I was particularly impressed by your African wardrobe during your tour of Japan. You made me proud! But more so about your friend Nichole Young that visited you in Japan. How do i get to shake the hands of such a good friend of yours for being so supportive of you. I can be reached also by phone (305)984-4511. Cheers! and keep singing.
regards,
Emmanuel Danso, CPA
May God continue to Bless You and have great success.
I miss you and will see you on Friday night!! See ya there.
Hugs and Respect,
Lisa
Sandra Kaye,
I am so glad that you are back in the States. The performance at the Dallas Museum of Art was incredible and Roy and I talked about it for days!!
I am anxiously awaiting your return to The Hideaway!! Any date set for your return?
Thanks for all the great music !!
Sharron
It was good to see you back home and to hear the crisp sharp vocals that I have missed. What a nice welcome you received from the DMA!! Keep on croaning!!
Hi Sandra, so great to be in touch with you again. I found my name cards all had the wrong email address on them! Sorry! So no surprise from you; I hope you had a great trip home, and I know you'll be so great at the National Anthem on Aug 16. I will ask some venues about hosting you, but they are in another part of China; I have to go there first, lots of lubs, and 1 resort described as an "African Castle"; it's the "Universal Resort" in Yalong Bay, Hainan Island Province of China, near Sanya City. Palm trees, beaches, seafood, etc. You should heck it out. Catch you later, best wishes to yr lovely family, Much love, Zophia
Sandra,
How are you doing baby, Its been a long time.Hope well meet up again soon.
I love your web site I,ve been listening to some of your tunes.
I hope I will be able to order some of your works here in London. If not I will mail some money to Debo to get me some. I dont want freebie I would like to buy because I like then.
Goob luck with your National Anthem at the stadium.
Greetings to the rest of the family.

Hi Sandra,
Thank you for all the kind word about my bass playing. Very much looking forward to making good music and having fun with you again on stage. You are tops in my book.
Looking forward to seeing and hearing you again soon! Congratulations on all of your success and achievements!
Hi SK,
I'm counting down the days until you return. I know you're having lots of fun, and giving them something to talk about over there in Shanghai, China. I can't wait to hear all the good stories, so hurry home! I'm so looking forward to hearing you sing in person, I think I've played the lyrics off your CD. It's past time for you to make another one, so get the wheels in motion.

Ms. Sandra,
I love you and I am so proud of you. You did it just as I knew you would. Remember when you would practice on me in the living room. I told you even back then one day I'm going to know a famous singer. And just look at you now, my friend the Celebrity. You go GIRL!!! God has blessed you with a beautiful voice and you are sharing it with the world. I am still so grateful you blessed us with your singing at my wedding. You are marvalous, your music is awesome, and you look fabulous. I love your website, your pictures, your sound, your CD's, and you. Congratulation on singing for the Texas Rangers game. I am so happy and excited for you. Much success and love to you, Debo and the boys. May God bless you continuously.
Here's to you,

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AUDITION ON 3-4-06
Hey Sister!! :)
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so proud of you! I knew in my heart that you were the WINNER. You were the only professional there. Think about it. You followed the instructions to a tee. No deviations or fancy vocal showcasing. Just the Star Spangel Banner sung beautifully. That's why the judges choose you to sing at the Rangers Game this year.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be there with you at the audition and to witness a remarkable moment in your stellar career.You are AWESOME!!! Love ya!

To our Beautiful and Talented Friend,
It is such a pleasure to be writing you a note in your "Guestbook"! It makes me feel that we are close even though miles away! We miss you so much here in Shanghai and can't wait until we are laughing together again -- whereever in this "Big World"!
Love to your wonderful husband, Debo; give him a hug and have him give you a "big one" for us! Stay as strong and wonderful as you are!!
Much Love,
Cass & Doc
Sandra Kaye, I HAVE MISSED YOU!!! I'll bet you may not remember, but honey, I didn't forget! I even brought my Mom to see you when she wasn't even doing the club thing and it was one of her great moments before she died in 1993. Do we go back or what? You have a voice such as that of an angel, and you always have. I remember classics with you, like "Route 66", and my favorite song about a chair "Why should I give it away?" and "Sunday Kind of Love" and "Someone to Watch over Me" and some Nancy Wilson, Billie Holiday moments and others that would bring even men to tears and other women to shame! God has truly smiled on you! Please call me at 214-796-8830 and email me at randrconnect@yahoo.com.
Keep doing what you do...Tell me where I can come and see you ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!
Renee' Morton
I remeber the first time I heard you at "Jazz under the Dome" at the Fair Park here in Dallas. I thought I had gone to Dina Washington 'heaven' with a 'Southern' flair. Then after time you became for me "Ms. Sandra" with a style all her own.
I must say God has blessed you with a remarkable gift and we, your public, have been so graciously enterained. I wish you didn't have to go to Japan to share, but we know how the 'Bales of Hay'situation is here in old Big 'D'(smile).Another CD soon? Please?
Dear Mom,
I am so proud of you. Remember when you would practice at our apartment and the musicians would eat up all the fried chicken or fish. I love you.
Your Son,
Sedrick
Sandra may you always have friendy ears and deep pocketbooks on all your gigs.It is always so rich to work with you thru the years. The Cosmos has been waiting for your song. Love bobby.
Dahling, your website is just like you. Professional and lovely to look at. May God prosper all you touch in 2006. Ava
My sister you have a very nice webpage i need to go ahead and complete mines lol Well hope to see you soon Stephen
Sandra you are looking great.
Glad to have had the priveledge to know you/sing with you and experience your wonderful talent.
Sandra's talent is truly a gift. Reward yourself by indulging in it!
The relaxing color of this website reminds me of the very first time I heard you sing. I was on lunch break in downtown Dallas, and I heard you singing at the Thanksgiving Tower. I was so touched by your talented art of vocal inspirations. I knew immediately that you are truly someone special. I'm still this very day, thanking God for smiling on me that day. I can defintiely testify that no matter where you're performing (locally, or internationally) your singing is admired by many. When visiting you in Japan, it was nice to see how your soothing voice was crystal clear to everyone attending your performances. In the words of a Japanese Geisha attending your show one night, "BRAVO!" Even thoough she was still learning to speak the English language, she definitely had a good ear for your ability to bring words to life. Sandra Kaye, don't ever stop singing. It's definitely your life's purpose. You've touched so many lives with your talent, "Thank God, for you!"
Love Always,
Nicole Young
