Release Notes:
For someone who first came to the world's attention through
her concerts in cyberspace, 'The Pink & The Lily' is drenched
in nostalgia. Sandi's second coming sees her with a new set of
songs that are layered, complex, full of lush strings, real
horns, interesting new sounds and unpronouncable percussion
instruments, yet still retaining the same raw, emotionally
direct feel from her debut.
She sings about the golden age of movies (the lush, cinematic
ballad "The Last Picture House In Town"), looks back at her
own childhood ("They Don't Make Mirrors Like They Used To"),
and decries modern menaces like bad TV (the jaunty, vintage
rock'n'roll of "Remote Control Me"), the corporate career path
(the Celtic folk-tinged "Success's Ladder"), or global warming
(the New Orleans/zydeco influenced "The Devil's Beat"). She
has also included one of her most personal songs to date, the
country-soul ballad "Wounded Heart" û a tribute to her
boyfriend and collaborator Jake Field.
