I finally made the trek to a new web host, and welcome you to the new www.sandyandina.com. Still under construction, but everything you loved about the old site (including archives of my op-eds and tech tips and photos), plus streaming audio (and a monthly download) and video clips and Hot Links (mustard optional--sorry, no Frosty Malts since they'd short out the server). Since I last had my own site (other than MySpace), I've firmed up my partnership in two bands--Andina & Rich and SASS!/The SASS! Trio, begun my seventh (!!!) Chicago Bar Assn. Christmas Spirits Show, co-released "Because We Can" (Travenia Records) by Andina & Rich and "SASS! Album One" (BWC Records); appeared on compilation CDs by the Old Town School of Folk Music, Sheheshe Music Services, and Dr. Demento (Basement Tapes #13). Am currently recording my second solo CD (my first, "Ghosts and Angels," is nearly sold out on CDBaby.com and my own stock, but available at iTunes and other download stores) and the first SASS! Trio CD; and Stephen Lee Rich and I will be heading down to The Gordons' excellent s. IL studio in January to record the second Andina & Rich CD. And I've lent my pipes and electric bass chops to a variety of others' CDs as well. I''m now President of Folk Alliance Region Midwest (FARM), so you'll find me at Folk Alliance in Memphis again this year (Feb. 18-22); I'm also up for Midwest Rep. of the Board of Local 1000 of the American Federation of Musicians, so you might catch me prowling the halls of NERFA in three weeks if I can sneak out of Chicago for the weekend (not showcasing, just jamming and meeting my fellow musicians). I am Media Relations Director of the Chicago Songwriters' Collective and as ever, a proud member of: The Recording Academy, ASCAP, JustPlainFolks, GoGirls Music.com and Indiegrrl.com/Music For Life. Watch this space for more news; meanwhile, check out the calendar! (And look me up on MySpace and YouTube--haven't figured out the musician end of Facebook, so I'm just a regular person there)
