Daughter of Abraham

Sandy Bailey's sound has often been compared to a spectrum of acts, including Norah Jones, Patsy Cline, Susan Tedeschi and Patti Smith - yet she possesses a sound all her own.

Her latest recording, 'Daughter of Abraham', released on Red Parlor Records is a ten- song collection. Expertly produced by Bailey, it showcases her signature sound, and includes performances by acclaimed musicians; guitarist Ryan Hommel (Amos Lee), bassist and engineer Marc Seedorf (Dinosaur JR, Lou Barlow), and drummer Don McAulay (The Rolling Stones, Neil Young).

Incorporating elements of gospel, blues, soul and classic Americana, the depth of her songwriting stems from her life and identity as a biracial woman and single mother who abandoned a Pentecostal upbringing in favour of a life of art-making and rock and roll.

The artist, Sandy Bailey, is discovered in each profound, candid tune. Her influences are on display from track to track. The first radio single "I Ain't Your Honey" is a declarative groover with a soulfully lilting vocal stating clearly the boundaries of a relationship.
