Sandy Cash - Voices from the Other Side

American-born Sandy Cash is a gifted singer-comedienne who has been delighting audiences in both Israel and abroad for over two decades. Living in a Western-oriented society in the heart of the Middle East has affected Sandy as a songwriter, pointing her toward issues-based lyrics that draw deeply from the well of history, and hold up a mirror to the politics of the present day. At the same time, her songs spring from the universal: the sustaining love of family, commitment to community, and - oh, so important! - a sense of humor. An award-winning songwriter and past participant in the prestigious Falcon Ridge Emerging Songwriter's Showcase, Sandy has now released four solo albums. Her original songs touch on everything from magic mirrors to historical heroes, while laying out the challenges of childhood and motherhood -- and the journey between them -- with warmth, humor and intelligence. ...the power and broad interpretive style of a Bette Midler or Barbra Streisand... Sandy Cash has a very special gift, that more than a singer, she is an excellent storyteller. - Bob McKenzie, Soundbytes, Canada 'Sandy Cash has impeccable taste...a gorgeous, rich voice [and] an ear for clever lyrics...I'm so happy to know that she is out there singing songs like these in here part of the world. Lucky them!' - Christine Lavin "When I first listened to Sandy's album 'A Thing So Real', I thought: 'Who is this woman and why haven't I heard her songs before?' Her consistently solid writing covers a wide range of material and is beautifully written, thoughtful and poetic. From tender to hard-hitting to humorous, this is a wonderful collection of songs that are sung with love and grace. - Priscilla Herdman.
