Sandie started writing songs seriously three years ago. I love playing my Taylor GS Mini. It is great for having out in the living room as it doesn't take up too much space. Enjoying seeing where this will take me. Winner of the Mussleburgh Vibrant Arts Festival singer song writer award 2016 for River Of Life.
