Biloxi Sun Herald. p. 62. Sanders first attracted national attention in 1963 as one of the first performers booked at The Rat Fink Room, Jackie Kannon's fledgling comedy club. "Among the new talent Kannon brought in," observed columnist Louis Sobol, "was a winner named Annette Sanders who looks something like Barbra Streisand and sings very much like in her manner."Sobol, Louis (October 10, 1963).

By the following spring, Sanders had appeared in such venues as the hungry I, Mister Kelly's, and the Blue Angel.

In December, the Cincinnati Post's Dale Stevens reviewed her performance at Cincinnati's recently opened Playboy Club, commending Sanders' "fine voice control, which gives her an added dimension of dramatics on her ballads, which are her specialty [...] Her approach is one of thoughtful emotion spiced by a high-keyed awareness of the lyrics."Stevens, Dale (December 9, 1964).

On the other hand, Variety, assessing Sanders' performance the previous month at Houston's Tidelands nightclub, observes:

{{center|Young thrush can do anything, but probably will excel as a jazz stylist. While she has a way with a ballad, Miss Sanders scores heavily with excellent jazz arrangements by her pianist and arranger Ray Starling. There are no frills about femme.

May 19, 1966 marked the beginning of the group's first extended engagement, at New York's Rainbow Grill. Reviewing that performance, Down Beat's Dan Morgenstern observed:

{{center|Miss Sanders, who has done well for herself in the world of television commercials, has a big, well-controlled voice, good intonation, and an unaffected, straightforward style.

Meanwhile, Sanders cut another two sides for Mercury in December 1966: "Come To The Masquerade" and "Any Other Way," both from the Off Broadway musical, Man with a Load of Mischief.[https://archive.org/details/cashbox28unse_20/page/n31/mode/2up?q=songstress+%22Annette+Sanders%22 "Record Ramblings: New York"]. Cash Box. December 17, 1966. p. 34.

Early successes notwithstanding, her marriage in 1965, plus the birth of two children not long thereafter, compelled Sanders to limit her commitments—not merely to Goodman, but to her music career as a whole, which, as a result, was confined almost entirely to studio work for the next two decades.Jacobsen, Ellen (October 2, 1969).

The Time is Right, Sanders' 1986 debut disc, featuring pianist-arranger Michael Abene, guitarist Joe Beck, and her husband, reedman Mort Lewis, was given a brief but emphatic—and empathetic—thumbs-up by the Herald-Sun's R.C. Smith, stressing the album title's autobiographical connotation:

{{center|Let's hope that the time is right for this fine singer, another graduate (with Marlene VerPlanck, among others) of the TV jingle camp who can really generate a lyric. The glorious Arthur Schwartz-Dorothy Fields song, Make the Man Love Me, rarely has been sung more simply and unaffectedly than here. Ms. Sanders has an intimate voice, blessedly free of mannerisms.Smith, R.C. (August 11, 1989). [https://www.newspapers.com/clip/115296871/the-herald-sun/ "On Jazz"]. The Herald-Sun. p. 7D.}}

In 1985, Sanders, along with colleague Arlene Martell and others, formed Group Five, a jazz vocal quintet composed entirely of veteran studio performers. The other original members were Helen Miles, Lenny Roberts and Artie Schroeck,Lloyd, Jack (November 18, 1988). [https://www.newspapers.com/image/169272568/?clipping_id=115394370 "High Notes"].
