Welcome to Mandyland! I'm so glad you're here.

​I'm a multi-passionate creative who loves to sing, act, write,
arrange and, well... make stuff!

Whether I'm performing live, filming a scene, arranging vocals,
or writing a song, it all comes from the same creative place:
​a deep desire to explore what it means to be human.

SINGER

Warmth. Precision. Expression.
With a 3+ octave range, Mandy can deliver a power ballad or a soft lullaby.  She's a studio pro who has recorded at Capitol Records.  As a featured soloist, she's performed in 22 countries. She's been backed by 95-piece orchestras to sold out crowds.

ACTRESS

The younger sister of Jane Krakowski with the girl-next-door charm of Drew Barrymore.  In addition to outside projects, Mandy  creates content and keeps her skills sharp with classes at Lesly Kahn &Co.

New Album drops March 8th: Just Like a Woman

Picture
I believe that a great song is like a diamond: you turn it a little bit, and new light shines. The inspiration for this album was to do covers of some of my favorite male rockers, but on my own terms and in my own way.  I wanted to reinvent these songs and tell them from a female perspective. 
So I began working on brand new arrangements of songs by The Beatles, Queen, Billy Joel, and more. Soon I was relating the lyrics to things I’d experienced as a woman and I had found a story with each song, and in an album order that tells a journey to and through womanhood.

Even though most people listen to songs individually these days, I love the idea of a whole album that has a cohesive theme and concept. Whether you enjoy these songs separately or as part of the journey, I want each listener to feel inspired and empowered.

New, LIVE Video: Celine Dion's Power of Love

      Celine Dion has always been my biggest singing inspiration. Not only does she have the most amazing pipes (and mixed belt), she always sings from the heart. 

       Hope you enjoy this live-recorded cover of one of her early hits, The Power of Love.  Be sure to follow me on Facebook and Instagram (@lifeofmandydickson) for regular cover songs!

Be sure to check out these new Singles- just in time to add to a Summer Playlist!

Just Jump In is Mandy's first commercially released original song. With an infectious melody and uplifting lyrics, this song draws upon some of her favorite artists: Jason Mraz, Ingrid Michaelson, and Colbie Caillat. Great to listen to at the Beach, Pool, or on a summer road trip!

Rocket Man is a sneak peak of Mandy's upcoming album, released a little early to celebrate with the new film of the same name. Always a huge Elton John fan, Mandy wanted to celebrate one of his best songs with a unique cover. 

Both songs are available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music, Apple Music, & anywhere you can find digital music!
