Sandy Posey (* 18th June 1947 in Jasper as Sandra Lou Posey Robinson ) is an American country singer.

Life

Sandy Posey began singing in Memphis and Nashville when she was young and quickly made a name for herself as a session singer. In 1966 she got her own record deal from MGM and landed her first chart success with Born a Woman (No. 12 US and No. 24 UK). After half a dozen chart hits and two chart albums with pop songs, the success subsided and so she withdrew from the music business in 1968. However, she returned in 1971 and returned to her country roots. She recorded some records for Columbia Records . Until 1980 she was represented several times in the country charts.
