"The music on here is too good to be lumped into singer/songwriter or pop music. Instead it's a sort of folksy, jazzy, mellow, acoustic, earthy music.

And Judy's voice is so pretty too. I would like to slowly wake up to this on Sunday mornings."

"Dramatic minors abound from the piano playing of Judy Sandra...as a saxophone swoops you up to an art-filled coffee shop deep in the heart of Europe in "Only The Love", an awesome opener to Judy's debut EP which is all too short. The folky..."Night Bird", displays Judy's amazing ability to transform her voice up and down the scales in a unique, almost operatic pop style that blankets in a beautiful femininity I just love! The title track is an uplifting progression of guitar strumming, accordion and conga in a southwestern style..one of the great qualities of this collection...it asks you to open your mind and dream a little, and I love that about Crossing The Border. Closing this 5 star, 5 song EP is the djembe/Native American drums, bass, piano and flute-filled "Wanting You", with airy coed harmonies similar to Roberta Flack's "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"...I hate to label Judy as a AAA artist since she makes remarkable use of a variety of instruments, combining contempo pop with a bit of Americana, a dash of folk and a whole lot of rootsy, artsy class, timeless and elegant."

Crossing The Border is the debut CD of singer, songwriter, and pianist Judy Sandra. Musical since childhood, Judy is no stranger to unusual musical influences. At nine, Judy performed with a 100-piece harmonica marching band, co-founded and co-led by her father, entertaining at veterans hospitals, nursing homes, and in local parades. The band gained national recognition when, two years later, they appeared in LIFE Magazine and on TV on The Today Show. Judy later played clarinet, folk guitar and studied classical guitar, which led her to perform with a large, classical mandolin orchestra.
As an adult, Judy studied classical and pop singing privately
