Sandy Ross is a veteran contemporary folk/acoustic blues coffee
house performer of the late 60's, a Peter Yarrow new writer pick of the mid-70's, and a
Fast Folk Magazine artist of the 80's/90's.
She started writing and performing during the 60's coffee house era. In the 1970's her
time was spent mainly as a staff songwriter for Chappell Music (Warner/Chappell), in Los
Angles, but she also produced demo sessions of her songs for 11 other major song
publishing companies, including: MCA, ATV, ScreenGems, and Filmways. Her songs have been
performed by, among others, Anne Murray and Kim Carnes. Her own performances of her songs
currently receive airplay on over 150 public, community, and college radio stations across
the US, the CBC-Network throughout Canada, BBC in Essex England and Northern Ireland, ATL
in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, 4DDB, PBS-FM, and 100.3 Bay FM in Australia, and
folk radio programs in other various parts of the world.
Since SLR Productions' indie release of her 1995 CD, "Portraits of Innocence,"
Sandy has toured through 40 US states, performing the coffee house/book store circuit and
doing live interview-performances on many independent and syndicated radio shows. She's
posted Notes from the Road journal segments, of these tour adventures with her
temperamental sidekick,
Cecil (a Dodge RAM conversion van) and her trusty notebook computer, to folk listservs on
the Internet, in "real-time" as she travels, emailing fans and well-wishers as
she goes.
Her new CD "Coloring Outside the Lines," was released August 9th and had a
wonderful send-off at the its CD Release Party at B.B. King's in Universal City. The Los
Angeles Times ran a story on Sandy, August 6th, to publicize the party. Click here to read
the article.
As for her work, and her style, Sandy's roots are ingrained in the blues. Even her social
commentary and political songs tend towards the bluer side of life, as she paints pictures
of characters in their settings, while telling their stories, without judgement. Her great
love for people and humanity reaches through every song and every performance.
In the Words of Others..
"Sandy is a woman of substance, and this is reflected in both her songwriting and her
performance style."
Jana Pendragon - Music Connection Magazine
"Ross sings with soothing familiarity and plays with refreshing expertise. . .You
need this album ("Portraits of Innocence") in your collection!"
Nicki De - Victory Review
". . .songs that cover the intensely personal with the power and understanding of
real experience. "Portraits of Innocence" is one of the most impressive
singer/songwriter albums to appear from America in the last year (1995)."
John O'Regan - Rock 'n' Reel
"What she does best is to create and sustain an emotional mood with each piece. Her
songs deal with the personal side of life: sketches of people briefly met, love gone
wrong... or right."
Kirk Honeycutt - Los Angeles Daily News
Sandy's work has received great reviews in Dirty Linen, Sing Out!, Victory Review, Rock
'n' Reel, and various online review magazines.
