Sandi's new song, 'Sun Comes Crashing Down' will be available as a free download from www.sandithom.com on Monday May 21st.
The album features an all-star ensemble led by the Black Crowes’ Rich Robinson, drummer Steve Gorman and fellow Black Crowe and widely travelled session guitarist Audley Freed, respected Nashville stars Mike Webb (keys/Dobro) and James Haggerty (bass) complete the line-up with special guest performances from Rolling Stones collaborator, saxophonist Bobby Keys, and stunning duet with the legendary singer-songwriter Buffy Sainte-Marie on her 1992 classic 'The Big Ones Get Away'.
'Flesh and Blood' is a significant release, being Sandi’s sophomore studio album, released solely by her independent label Guardian Angels Records (distributed in the UK by Nova through Universal Music Operations). The highly anticipated new album radiates the raunchy blues rock bravado of the opening track 'Help Me', followed by the country-flavoured Leadbelly classic 'In The Pines'. The album also features the strutting, clavinet-led 'Stormy Weather'; and the emotionally compelling finale 'Lay Your Burden Down'.
"Sandi really stretched herself and made a bold new album,” reflects Rich Robinson, “Her songs are honest, vulnerable and very strong. Her vocal abilities are showcased really well, as is her guitar work, and harp playing. I think Sandi’s made a great record. It was a joy to work with her.”
Classic rock producer Kevin Shirley (Led Zeppelin, The Black Crowes, Joe Bonamassa) also mixed two tracks, 'Sun Comes Crashing Down' and a duet with Buffy Sainte Marie on the latter’s classic song, 'Big Ones Get Away'. “Sandi’s writing is fantastic,” says Shirley, “and her singing is wonderful. 'Sun Comes Crashing Down' has all the right ingredients to be a hit.”
