Singer, harper, songwriter, lyricist, improvisationist - Sandra has performed with the groups Greenway Sparks and An Drasda, with the Georgia Renaissance Festival, The Atlanta Shakespeare Company, and at many Celtic festivals in the East. Among her most memorable memories: performing on Barra, Outer Hebrides, during the Clan MacNeil Gathering of 1987; with the ASC in Shakespeare's Globe Theater, August 1995; and sitting in (among other musicians) with the Chieftains during two of their Atlanta appearances.
Her signature music is a type called freesong: improvised vocal music without real words, focusing on feeling rather than meaning.
Enjoy a look at her video, with the song
Twa Corbies
Thank you. iam glad and also proud to be a part of your page. Friendship means a lot to me. I hope we can chat some time. May God Bless and keep you safe. Your new friend Timothy////Peace
Oh no!! ;-) Do you think your poor harp can take hanging out at Chuck's for a few weeks? You guys were cracking us up Sunday.... heheheheh! So great to see and hear you...your voice and lyrics are outstanding. I had always wanted to refer to an ex as an infected cuss but didn't have the nerve! love&all, Cyndi
You are awesome!! The fiddler song was killing me!!! (not to mention the fiddler) You are a hoot! I'm looking forward to seeing you again real soon!! And you may have my croutons any ol time!!! LOL! ~ Do they make a distress signal for hi-jacked harps? ~ Peace, Keren
Yes, it is amazing what you can find by following the friends links. Not sure if you'll be familiar with the Old Blind Dogs (from my current home town of Aberdeen) - there is a wonderful version of Bedlam Boys you might like to hear on their live album released a few years back - if you're interested in Scottish Fiddle music I hope you have looked at Aidan O'Rourke - and if you want fiddle and dance check out Shooglenifty - and more wonderful Scottish and Gaelic song with Kris Drever (really nice bloke) and Julie Fowlis
Didn't notice you had a video up there! Really like your variations in the Butterfly. Its a good tune. Glad you like our stuff :) Its there to be enjoyed. Love from Scotland MAK x
Thank you for finding me! i enjoyed listening to your interpretation of the Twa Corbies and John Anderson - very expressive stuff. All the best from a lovely shiny sunny Scotland x Corrina
Thanks for the friend request. Hope you liked what you heard. Very much liked your version of John Anderson My Jo - very different to what I've heard before. Best Wishes, Paul
Ha! I can't wait to hear what the cd sounds like too! The bastards snuck stuff in without giving me a hint so the mixing is turning into one little surprise after another. :) Miss you, sunshine. Be well!
