Lauded for her unique ability to blend Jazz/Funk/Latin music with a Celtic twist, the Cork artist adds motown to her CV with her new single.

'Dance X3!' is a personal song that emanated from Havana's musical streets. It documents how the singer overcame a period of betrayal and sadness by embracing Cuban dance and music.

Having just played her biggest show to date, Liverpool's Feis, alongside Irish legends Imelda May and Shane McGowan to 15,000 people, Sands is set to play a string of headline shows this autumn 2018 around Ireland and Germany, with her new record 'Dance X3!” a funky, motown collaboration with legendary guitarist and producer, Jimmy Smyth.
