Description
Sandy Posey (born June 18, 1944) is an American popular singer, who enjoyed success in the 1960s with singles such as her 1966 recording of Martha Sharpe's composition, "Single Girl." She is often described as a country singer, although, like Skeeter Davis (to whom she's been frequently compared) her output has varied. Later in her career, the term "countrypolitan," associated with the "Nashville sound", was sometimes applied. Posey had three hit singles in the United States all of which peaked at number 12 in the sales charts.
Sandy Posey was born Sandra Lou Posey in Jasper, Alabama. She graduated from high school in Memphis, Tennessee in 1962. Posey obtained work as a session singer, after she was recommended by an aunt to an acquaintance who worked in television. In addition to working as a receptionist at a studio in Memphis, she took part in recordings across the Deep South and appeared, for example, on recording sessions produced by Lincoln “Chips” Moman for Elvis Presley and on Percy Sledge’s "When a Man Loves a Woman" (a number one hit in the USA in 1966). Other singers whom she backed included Joe Tex, Bobby Goldsboro and Tommy Roe. In 1968, Posey married Wade Cummings, who performed as an impersonator of Elvis Presley under the name of Elvis Wade. Posey, in fact, appeared with Presley during an engagement in Las Vegas in 1969. Sandy Posey had out a successful string of hits in the late 1970s for Warner Brothers Records. In the early 1970s Sandy had some hits singles and one album on Columbia Records. The album was titled, "Why Don't We Go Somewhere And Love." But her most comprehensive work in the UK was the eponymous "Sandy Posey's Greatest Hits" LP in the late sixties which include her three highest climbing hits in the US as mentioned above, and the two haunting ballads: "What a woman in love won't do" - first line - "When I see the sunrise all over your feet ....", and "Sunglasses, to hide behind". In October of 2009, Sandy and her husband Wade were videotaped at a church in Florida singing and preaching. When the video was found to be public, it was deleted from the website shortly after.
