Praise for Sandi McMenamin

"Let us know where your next job is. We would like to follow you all over London!" - MICHAEL CAINE

"I have worked with many international artists – Sandi’s unique earthy voice and natural warmth endear her to any audience." - DAVID SABINE Radio 5DN

"ADELAIDE YOU’RE A LADY…… What a lovely song!" SIR HARRY SECOMBE

"Touch of class at (Cyprus) Hilton…… Sandi’s rich voice reminds me a little of Marti Webb and the songs on this excellent debut (album) are all potential hits." - JOHN VICKERS

"Thanks for a great rendition of my father’s song." - TIM CHARLES

"ADELAIDE YOU’RE A LADY…… The lyrics of the title song are great. I can also picture Brisbane as the subject of the song." - SALLYANNE ATKINSON

"At the Bombay Brasserie (London’s haunt of the great and famous)…… Telly Savalas halted midway through the vindaloo to give his undivided attention to Sandi singing NEVER ON SUNDAY in Greek – ‘Well that’s talent.’ " - SAM MAGAZINE

"Sandi even had people crying with her sentimental singing (in Japan). And it’s not easy creating a nightclub atmosphere in a concert hall." - DIANE BEER

"Amongst the thousands of expatriates living in Cairo, the big showbiz hit is Adelaide singer Sandi McMenamin. At the magnificent Nile Hilton Hotel the dark haired Aussie singer/pianist holds court to a full house seven nights a week." - DAVID BAKER

“To be fair, no song about Sydney can come close to Sandy McMenamin’s immortal ode to the Paris of the South, Adelaide You’re A Lady. It might be hilariously inept, but you can’t accuse it of being insincere.” - ANDREW P STREET
