Timeline

Sandra Kay Matthews, known professionally as Sandra St. Victor, is a Dallas-born singer-songwriter most known for her work as lead singer of The Family Stand and their international hit single "Ghetto Heaven".

She attended the now famous Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts, (Arts Magnet) High School studying all styles of music.

Arts Magnet was also stomping grounds for musical colleagues Erykah Badu, Roy Hargrove, Norah Jones and Edie Brickell.

She received scholarships in music to Kansas University & Bishop College in Dallas, Texas, where she continued her studies, until deciding she'd rather learn by doing.

She joined a local band in Dallas, and began touring Texas and Louisiana.

The band was led by jazz guitarist Zachary Breaux.

1980

St. Victor moved to New York in the early 1980s on the offer of Roy Ayers to join his touring band Ubiquity.

After seeing her sing with Ayers at the upper west side's Mikell's, Chaka Khan asked Sandra to join her touring outfit, and help her find & audition the new background singer unit.

Sandra toured with Chaka throughout the 1980s as well as Freddie Jackson and Glenn Jones.

Alongside touring, she made her name on the session circuit honing her chops with some of New York's finest voices, such as Lisa Fischer, Cindy Mizelle, Audrey Wheeler, Brenda White King, Tawatha Agee and Curtis King.

1986

In 1986, Sandra was introduced to Peter Lord and Jeffrey Smith via Lisa Fischer at a Luther Vandross concert in Dallas, Texas, where she was visiting family.

Sandra had met Lisa years before in Houston, Texas, before she moved to New York.

Fischer was on tour with The Crystals at the time.

Peter and Jeff were known R&B producers and needed someone to sing their demos.

Sandra fit the bill.

She and the boys hit it off right away.

Their three distinct musical backgrounds, classical, soul, pop, rock, jazz, melded together in the studio creating something exciting enough for them to want to record as a team.

Hence the beginning of The Family Stand.

1993

Sandra began her solo career in 1993 signing to Elektra Records and recording the never-released Sanctuary.

Although never released as a St. Victor work, the album has had several songs used by other artists, including the title track "Sanctuary", words used by Prince on his Emancipation CD, retitled and set to his own music as "Soul Sanctuary".

"I'll Never Open My Legs Again" used by Chaka Khan on her Come 2 My House CD retitled, "I'll Never Be Another Fool", "Whatever You Want" used by Tina Turner, and "Love Is", also used by Prince for an unreleased band under his production.

The song was renamed "Van Gogh".

Serbian band Van Gogh also covered the song.

Sandra's original work languishes still today on the record company's shelf.

1996

in 1996 Warner Brothers released Sandra's Mack Diva Saves the World, a more solid radio effort than her Family Stand work, critically acclaimed as well, but still no radio support.

Around this time, she was featured on legend Curtis Mayfield's final album New World Order recording a duet with him called "I Believe In You".

2001

Going independent in 2001, Gemini: Both Sides was released via Expansion in the UK, and JVC in Asia, becoming an underground favorite amongst connoisseurs.

During the Family Stand years, St. Victor's also wrote for Paula Abdul, with bandmates Peter Lord and V. Jeffrey Smith.

Later, Sandra discovered R&B group Profyle from Shreveport LA and got them signed to Motown Records.

2003

Her song, "Lady" by Profyle, co-written with Tom Hammer, was covered by The Temptations, and nominated for a Grammy Award in 2003.

2009

She co-wrote 3 songs on stand-alone vocalist Lalah Hathaway's CD Self Portrait, released in 2009, with one of the songs, "That Was Then", being nominated for a Grammy Award.

Moving to Europe in the early part of the decade, Sandra formed a touring unit called Daughters Of Soul.

This 2 hour show featured Nona Hendryx of LaBelle, Joyce Kennedy of Mother's Finest, Deniece Williams (5 time Grammy winner), Caron Wheeler of Soul II Soul, Lalah Hathaway daughter of Donny Hathaway, Indira Khan daughter of Chaka, Simone daughter of Nina Simone, and Leah McCrae daughter of George & Gwen McCrae.

Daughters of Soul toured the festival circuit doing Nice Jazz, Pori Jazz, Java Jazz in Jakarta, among others.

Sandra also rejoined Chaka Khan on tour in Europe, and toured with Leon Ware doing Montreaux Jazz, Vienna Jazz, and North Sea Jazz in the Netherlands.

2010

In 2010 SSV's Sinner Child experimented in different ways, with several genres.

The plan is to release mini EPs, dance, blues, soul, rock, piano & voice with the group.

The first EP, "at my spheres" was produced by underground beatmaster Mark de Clive-Lowe.

2013

2013 saw St. Victor’s 1st full-length release since 2001’s “Gemini: Both Sides”.

The album, produced by Mark de Clive-Lowe was released on Shanachie Entertainment internationally.
