"Move on Up" was many months in the making. This album is a reflection of Mandy's life journey. Her reaching for strength to press on, despite the sorrows and trials of life, is at the heart of this album. It is also an expression of gratitude for finding and, by grace, staying on the path. Mandy would like to thank her husband, Joseph Marino; Bob Kilpatrick; Will Derryberry; Mark "Mooka" Rennick from Prairie Sun Recording Studio; her three children, Cosmos, Zosima and Justina; the incredible musicians on the album, Levi Lloyd, Bob McBain, Nick Otis and Mark Chole. All without whom, this labor of love would not have been possible. Most of all, Mandy looks forward to getting to know you! She hopes that you find enjoyment and encouragement through listening to this album, "Move On Up"!
