Sandy’s is the silky voice you hear on Smoothjazz.com Global Radio. The Internet media outlet is her vision and was created out of frustration while going in and out of employment with ‘terrestrial’ radio.

Sandy takes a hands-on approach with Smoothjazz.com, answering hundreds of fan email personally from listeners all over the world. In addition to working intimately with the music and programming of Smoothjazz.com Radio, Sandy also works closely with artists and labels to promote new and undiscovered music. 



Sandy loves living on the Monterey Peninsula in Northern California and steals days whenever possible to enjoy the natural beauty of the area; from sun drenched Santa Cruz to tranquil Big Sur. According to Sandy, “To live in the Monterey Bay area is to live life fully. ” Sandy is currently in production creating the first Girl's Music Internet Station: GoGirl.net to debut in 2007 and just finished launching a sister station to SmoothJazz.com called SmoothLounge.com

Radio personality and concert promoter, Sandy Shore, founded Smoothjazz.com in 1995. Originally, the on-line destination was used as a ticket outlet for Sandy Shore Productions’ locally produced concert events. However, by the late 1990’s the Website had been transformed into a global presence by Co-Founder Donna K. Phillips for Smooth Jazz offering exciting information for both artists and fans alike and making SmoothJazz.com the FIRST Woman owned + operated Internet Radio Station in the World.
