   About The Sands
Photobucket

“Beautiful, haunting and relaxing with spine tingling vocals, thought provoking lyrics and brilliant guitar riffs.
A timeless style that crosses so many genres…I dare anyone not to enjoy them!”

T.B.D.S.


"A lost sound that conflicts with the modern world in the most wonderful way, think Eric Clapton like vocals, acoustic well tailored songs.
The two vocalists compliment each other to form a sweet chilled out sound, this is grown up stuff with intelligent well made songs and great production.
Also check out their rendition of 'Don't Cha', they strip it of shitty-ness, make it funky and a great song.
A truly talented band, listen and fall in love with them
