After seven years since my last solo studio album, I am FINALLY working towards releasing the next! And I am inviting you to be a part of the project. I want to make it a priority. Why? Because I keep getting correspondence from all over the world about the impact my simple songs are having, often on people just like you, but also those at life’s lowest ebb. One troubled young lady was about to 'cut up’ again, when one of my songs aired on her television screen. As a result she has not self-harmed since. This is just one of the many reasons I am compelled to keep singing!

So, the song goes on ...

  

By the pictures, you'll notice that some of the piano tracks have been laid down, and are now ready to be built upon. Studios in Washington DC, Illinois, Florida, and California have been used so far. For the remaining work, we’re yet to add New South Wales, and of course my home state, Queensland, to the mix. The final touches will be added in Nashville, then it will be mixed and mastered back in Illinois, thanks to 3ABN’s founder, Danny Shelton, who has very graciously - and generously - helped me get the ball rolling again! Lastly the files will come back across the waters to Australia for the artwork and duplication. 

  

Close friends, featured musicians, and supporting vocalists will be: Adrian Westney Jr, Aleta King, Alvin Chea, Braedan Entermann, Brian Jones, Jennifer LaMountain, Joe Tyler, Kristie Sipec, Kristijan Sipec, Neville Peter, and Sanja Kitevski.

While there is still so much more in the way of vocals and other instruments to be recorded before the mixing, mastering, and manufacturing can take place, I plan to release this new project in July 2015 - just 8 months away!

All Sandra'd out? Or flat broke?

This is where you come in. I’d love you to partner with me by simply pre-purchasing your copy today. I need 1000 people to pre-purchase just 1 copy for A$20, and this goal will be realised. Better still, 200 people pre-purchasing 5 copies as gifts for A$100 will get me across the threshold. Please see all the rewards listed to the right, and take a moment to share this with anyone you think might be interested. My goal is to raise A$20,000 and I only have 40 days in which to do it. POZIBLE is an all or nothing fundraising platform. If I don’t meet my goal, your credit card will not be billed, (and well, it might be another 7 years before I get on top of this).  CLEARLY I NEED YOU!

  

By pre-purchasing your CD, you will help fund the following anticipated costs: arrangers, musicians & vocalists wages $11,000 | studio costs $4,000 | duplication $3,000 mechanical licenses $2,000 | layout & design $1,000 | travel $500 | photography $200 pozible fee $1,000 | postage $3,000 | PROJECTED TOTAL $25,700.

With God's blessing, my time starts NOW! With YOUR blessing, everything raised above the goal will help offset my musicians' travel related expenses to San Antonio, Texas (July 2015), where I have been invited to lead the music for the Women's Ministries meetings at the next General Conference Session (a 5 yearly worldwide gathering of Seventh-day Adventists).  Without my precious accompanists, I am well aware of my limitations!   

  

Accountability is a wonderful thing.  So is prioritisation.  This initiative will focus my attention on getting back into the studio to get the job done! This is also a sure way of guaranteeing that upon completion, the music will go straight into the homes of those who value and appreciate this humble ministry.  While ever God keeps opening doors for me to spread His love through this means, I will do just that!  THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR WHATEVER ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PLEDGE!
