Press and Fan Reviews

"She's a true consummate professional, and puts on a 5-star show. The songs, the audience banter, the class and elegance, the heart and emotion, the striking dress – her performance had it all. And Vandana's powerful voice, wow. This gifted woman has some SERIOUS pipes."
Lee
"Her voice took on colors of Julie Andrews with a touch of Barbra Streisand. This petite East Indian cabaret singer can belt out power ballads effortlessly. She also finds subtleties in softer, quieter moments..."

Austin Ryder
