Sandi is one of the most highly acclaimed performers of our time with five Grammy Awards, four Billboard Music Awards, three platinum records, five gold records, over 40 GMA Dove Awards, platinum and gold status record sales and tours on Broadway.

Admired for her wide vocal range and expressive flexibility, Sandi Patty was first introduced to music lovers with her spellbinding rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" during the re-dedication of the Statue of Liberty in 1986. Virtually overnight she became one of the country's best-loved performers. Her version of the national anthem has been performed with the National Symphony, at the Indianapolis 500, the Dedication of Camp David Chapel and ABC's Fourth of July Special. Her debut symphonic pops album Broadway Stories was released to rave reviews. She has since performed with symphonies across the country, including the New York Pops, Boston Pops and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. She's also performed during three separate U.S. Presidential Inaugurations and for numerous nationally televised holiday events and Christmas specials.

David & Sandra Barrett are the generous sponsors of his night of faith, love and gratitude in song at the acoustically supreme Spencer; additional support is being provided by Skip & Debbie Nix and Bruce & Lynn Morgan.

In addition to her final tour, Sandi has released a brand new album titled Forever Grateful. The album features brand new songs, many of which she co-wrote.

"What a privilege it has been to share my story and faith through song for so many years," Sandi says, adding "My desire is to use this next season and the "Forever Grateful" tour as an opportunity to say 'thank you' to as many people as possible!"
