"It was my good fortune to support Sandra with her debut recording, "What Will I Tell My Heart?" The music is treated just like one of Sandra's live performances. The band plays two opening numbers after which Sandra takes center stage for a memorable set of blues, standards and love songs. The band then ends the performance with an instrumental as the audience "relaxes" and returns to everyday life. The recording was made in only two sessions with most tunes done in "one take" (very uncommon on a vocal recording session). This is the only project I have done where the musicians sat around the studio well into the night listening to the just recorded tracks. Arlington Jones, Shelley Carrol and Andrew Griffith are the perfect accompanists for Sandra on this project. I was really honored to play a small role in documenting these performances."

"Elegance, style, intensity, a serious dedication to perfecting her craft and a voice that can reach the high and the low notes with poise, Sandra Kaye is one of the best. What else can we say? Listen, and you will simply agree."

"Very few people today can really sing an adult standard tune, the Great voices are mostly gone. Sandra Kaye can take the influences of Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, and yes Dinah Washington and still have her own twist.
Like so many artists Sandra has been singing all her life but unlike others she took her time in learning the trade. What I like the most about her work is how she owns a song. She gets in the nooks and crannies of a tune and fills them up with style and grace. I think once you hear Sandra sing, you'll be as big a fan as I am."

“If you are a lover of the late, great Dinah Washington or of the Blues of Billie and Bessie, then you’ll love Sandra Kaye. She gives new life to the old standards of jazz and blues. All month long at JZ, you can hear why Sandra is such a vocal jazz triumph.”
JZ'S CLUB HANGZHOU, CHINA 2007

Sandra's Song...
Nothing is more exhilarating than the ability to communicate, and sensuous Sandra Kaye performs her songs in a way that can soothe, amuse and stir the soul. Sandra communicates!"

"Sandra Kaye Shines...
If I had a column in a newspaper, that would be my headline for your performance at Sammons. You were marvelous, as always, but with an extra-added touch of magic. You took those talented young guys by the hand and led them through a repertoire of songs they probably never had heard before and thrilled that critical audience. I was captivated also. I was truly into every word. You gave us the package-perfect intonation, perfect diction, soulful interpretation, and a good mixture of swing, blues and ballads."

Dedicated to Brad and Shelley

It’s Growing

Like a snow ball rolling down the side of a snow covered hill

 IT'S GROWING 

Like the size of
the fish that the man claims broke his reel

IT'S GROWING

Like the rose bud blooming in the
warmth of the summer sun

IT'S GROWING

like the tale by the time its been told by more
than one

IT'S GROWING


Every day it grows a little more than it was the day before, my love for you just grows and
grows ooooh how it grows and grows and where it's going to stop I'm sure nobody knows
