Much-loved Irish artist, Sandy Kelly was always going to be a singer and performer, born into her grandfather, Dusky Dan’s Variety Roadshow. Sandy’s first record, ‘Come Back Billy Joe’ reached number two in the Irish pop charts. She represented Ireland at the 1982 Eurovision Song Contest, as lead singer in The Duskeys. She has achieved multiple Gold Records, including hit duet ‘Woodcarver’ with Johnny Cash and her version of Willie Nelson’s ‘Crazy’, one of the biggest selling singles in Ireland in 1989. For three years, she hosted her own weekly TV Series ‘Sandy’. Her connection to Patsy Cline’s songs led to Sandy being cast as the lead in the West End production of ‘Patsy – The Musical’ in London in the 90’s. While on an Irish tour, Johnny Cash heard Sandy on the radio, asked her to join him on stage and invited her to Nashville. Sandy subsequently recorded and toured with a host of legendary U.S. country artists including Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Glen Campbell, Tammy Wynette, George Hamilton IV and Chet Atkins. The album, Leaving It All Behind, was recorded at what was Johnny Cash’s personal studio ‘Cash Cabin’ in Nashville and produced by five time Grammy Award winning producer, John Carter Cash, alongside Sandy’s son, Willie and an A-list Nashville session band. Traversing the lines of classic country and contemporary folk, the album includes re-cut acoustic versions of Sandy’s duets with Johnny Cash and Willie Nelson, ‘Woodcarver’ and ‘Against The Wind’.
