Tell us about yourself and your backgrounds.

Sandy comes from a musical family and sang in choirs throughout her school years. Since her college days she was the lead singer for several "rock bands" before she mellowed out and started Heart 2 Heart with Dana. She is an attorney by day, singer by night.

Dana has been performing publicly since he was 15. His keyboard talents have been featured in rock groups, dance bands, electronic trios, and even a jazz quartet. He enjoys the intimacy that the Heart 2 Heart setting offers.

How did you get started as a musical duo?

We played together for years in a five-piece rock band called "Class Action." We would sometimes play a tune together at the end of a set, and we always wanted to do more as a duo. After we both left the band, we focused our musical energy on Heart 2 Heart. In 2005, interior designer Linda Mordoh got us our first gig as a duo, performing in the living room of a home featured in the Home-a-Rama. The rest is, as they say, history. Since then, we've performed at weddings, restaurants, fund raisers, anniversary parties, cocktail receptions, and dinners.

How would you describe your style of music?

We like to say our music is soothing, classy, and romantic. Our song selections span a number of categories. We can do soft pop, ballads, jazz standards, and country tunes. If someone desires a special song for their event, we can accommodate that, too.

Do you have any interesting projects or news you want to share?

We are excited that we will soon have our website up and running. Look for www.heart2heartduo.com in the very near future. In the meantime, we can be contacted through l'Evento, or by email at gozrilla@aol.com or by calling 317-407-2704

For anyone planning a wedding or other event, what makes Heart 2 Heart special?

We understand that your event matters. It is about you, not us. Our music compliments rather than dominates. Guests can enjoy themselves and have a conversation without competing with the music. People also often comment on how much they enjoy our song selections. All ages enjoy our music. Heart 2 Heart is not a dance band... we fit perfectly during the cocktail reception and dinner hour. Then, a dance band or DJ can take over!

What are people most surprised to learn about you two?

The fact that we are not married. We are not even a couple. We are musical partners!
