Sandman Project - Hearts Forever

Following the international praise for 2024 debut Where Did You Go?, Sandman Project return with Hearts Forever, the first album entirely composed, arranged and produced by guitarist and bandleader Tal Sandman.

Written after Sandman’s move from Jaffa to Leipzig, the album blends Middle Eastern melody, desert rock, Ethiopian modes, Afrobeat, funk, soul, jazz and psychedelia into a deeply personal instrumental language.

The record reflects a new level of creative confidence, with Tal shaping the original demos herself before bringing them to a new band of collaborators, while long-time collaborator Tomer Baruch returns as mixing engineer.

Across seven tracks, Hearts Forever balances groove, spiritual searching and melodic immediacy, culminating in the hopeful closing piece Feelings Of Hope.
