Sally Dastey
"It’s the voice . . .joyous, effortless, restrained, subtle. It’s a voice
that can make you cry, it’s a voice that can make you smile. And it can also overwhelm you with its power."
Jeff Jenkins (In Press/RRR)You probably know Sally as one-third of the ARIA award winning Tiddas, however, in 2002 she launched her solo career with the album, Secrets To Keep which was album of the week and received high rotation on ABC, Australia wide.

Sally Dastey is one of the most talented and inspirational artists to come out of Australia.
In 2002 Sally released her first solo album Secrets To Keep after ten years as being one third of the highly successful and critically acclaimed Tiddas.
Since the release of Secrets To Keep Sally has been busy. She has toured with Eddi Reader (Scot), Brian Kennedy (IRE), Boo Hewerdine (Eng), Nick Barker, written new material and has played on a host of Festivals throughout Australia.
Half A Wish Half A Moon will not let her fans down, as it is a magic mix of songs penned by Sally as well as the traditional Wild Mountain Thyme – best known as Go Lassie Go, and Banks & Brae. In short you get 13 stunning songs.
Sally and her band The Sweet Sceptics keep on getting better. Their shows are uplifting, thoughtful and in short an absolute joy to be a part of. Sally is also continuing to mature and evolve as a songwriter and performer, and with this new album she has really hit the mark. She has the ability to cross into a range of genres and her live shows are a mix of full band performances as well as astonishing a capella performances. Sally is without a doubt one of Australia’s finest female vocalists.
Half A Wish Half A Moon was co-produced by Sally and long time collaborator and accordion player extraordinaire Mark Wallace with great assistance from Craig Pilkington.
The Sweet Sceptics are Mark Wallace on accordeon and vocals, Matt Earl on drums and usually Rory Boast on bass – but he has been swept off to Sweden, he has been ably replaced for the duration of his journey by rockin’ Tony Johannsen – who normally plays with Nick Barker and the Backyard Six.
