"Sandman" is a song by British recording artists Shell Ruin and Alesha. It was written and produced by the songwriting partners (frequently dubbed "Shellesha") for Ruin's tenth studio album, Luna (2017). While Ruin's previous studio albums, Play (2015) and Nocturne (2016), featured guest vocals from Alesha, "Sandman" marked the first duet between the pair since 2009's "Delusions of Grandeur". Reflective of its parent album, "Sandman" is a downtempo folk and soft rock song; it samples "Tin Man" (1974) by America.
