Additionally, Sandi will appear at Carnegie Hall this Thanksgiving 2015 for the 5th Annual Christmas in New York concert event.
Sandi was introduced to the world with her rendition of The Star Spangled Banner during the rededication 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 full length symphonic pops album Broadway Stories, conducted by Maestro Jack Everly, was released to rave reviews. Sandi has performed with symphonies across the country, including the New York Pops, Boston Pops, & the Dallas Symphony. She headlined the title role in sold out performances of the musical “Hello, Dolly!” with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, co- starring Tony Award winner Gary Beach. Sandi has also performed during three separate Presidential Inaugurations as well as at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
In her “Forever Grateful” World Tour, Sandi will bring her two passions together: singing and humanitarianism through World Vision. The tour will feature very special guests Veritas and performances from members of Sandi’s family. In addition to her final tour, Sandi will celebrate
the holidays in cities across the US with her Christmas Tour.
“What a privilege it has been to share my story and faith through song for so many years,” Sandi
says. “My heart is full of gratitude for so many who have been along this journey with me. I could never have imagined my career taking me to so many amazing places and meeting so
many people who have changed my life forever…. 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!”
For the past 30 years, Sandi has inspired others with her humanitarian work. Through World
Vision, she has helped provide inspiration and hope to people who need it most. In addition, she
has been a passionate advocate for Water4, raising awareness for organization’s revolutionary
water wells which provide clean water to the most needed areas of the world.
Along with the “Forever Grateful” Tour, Sandi will release a brand new album titled Forever
Grateful in early 2016. The album will feature brand new songs, many of which were co-written
by Sandi herself. The album will also feature songs co-written by Grammy® Award Winning
Artist Michael W. Smith, Dove Award Winner Nichole Nordeman, and many others.
Highlights for Sandi’s Farewell Tour also include The Sandi Patty & Friends Cruise, which will
sail through the Eastern Caribbean in February 2016. The cruise will include performances and
speaking from Anita Renfroe, Sheila Walsh, Selah, Angie Smith, Travis Cottrell, Wayne
Watson, and Marty Grubbs.
The “Forever Grateful” Tour will commence in February 2016 and run through Fall 2016
