Artist: Sandi Patty
After a [supposed] 10-year absence from the Christian music scene, Sandi Patty is back. Winner of 39 Dove Awards and 5 Grammies, Sandi’ career is a tour de force in Christian music. While she’s probably best known for singing the National Anthem, she’s also had three platinum and five gold records…and is a favorite of thousands around the world.
Sandi is also a favorite speaker on the Women of Faith circuit, and isn’t afraid to speak candidly about the affair and subsequent divorce that put her career on hold. Her new album, Falling Forward, sounds like some of her best work. Check it out!
Incidentally, I’m not thinking very highly of INO Records at the moment. The e-card link above takes you to a web page with a bio, media player, etc…and they titled the web page “sandipatti”. All of the graphics on the page say “Sandi Patty”. Her official website is sandipatty.com. The bio says “Sandi Patty”. Come on, guys…that’s certainly not your best work, and I hope you get it fixed right away.

And hello?!?!?!? A 10-year break from CCM for Sandi? Where have they been? In a cave? What about “Hymns of Faith, Songs of Inspiration,” the last Christmas album, “All the Best Live,” “Take Hold of Christ,” the “Girls Are Back in Town” tour and so on? What shoddy reporting.

Yeah. I thought it was weird, too…and so I double-checked. I’ve added the word [supposed] to my entry. I’m feeling pretty badly for Sandi at this point:
1. Her promoters spelled her name wrong.
2. They seem to think she’s been sitting at home since 1997…but I know she put out albums in all but 4 of the past 28 years.
3. I don’t know who built her website, but their Flash slideshow is out of whack in Internet Explorer, covering the navigation…so you can’t get anywhere. It’s fine in Firefox (no surprise) but - like it or not - the majority of her visitors will undoubtedly be using IE and walk away thinking less of her.
Agggh!
Sandi: I’ll help you with your website, if you want…contact me.
