notes
Although chiming guitars and eminently singable choruses make her music instantly accessible, beneath an iridescent pop sparkle lies a dense shadowland of emotion, intensity and truth. Her songs initially sound sweet and simple but the lyrics reveal a sadder introspective alternative.
"I've been a good girl, a bad girl and a sad girl," she says. "You get to meet all of them -- sometimes all in one song."
Her musical influences range from Carole King to Aimee Mann,
from The Beatles to Rickie Lee Jones and this compelling alternative pop lends itself admirably to dramatic applications. The hit WB series, Smallville, has utilized Susan's music to underscore on-screen action and she's recently inked licensing deals with a trio of powerhouse companies who keep Hollywood supplied with songs.
Her first two releases, THIS THING and ROMEO & THE BEAUTY QUEEN earned accolades from Billboard, merit awards from ASCAP, and airplay on Los Angeles radio, and her newest CD promises to extend her legacy of ever-evolving songcraft.
She plays occasional live shows at Los Angeles clubs like
The Gig, The Mint, Molly Malone's, Club Lingerie and Genghis Cohen, sometimes as a solo performer and sometimes with an eclectic mix of musicians drawn from a few close friends and some of L.A.'s finest session players. She prefers to leave her diva at the door, believing that a well-written song, not the artist, should be the star.

Smart, tuneful - what more could you want?
author: CGHillSo I said to myself, "Self, what you need is about thirty-five minutes of exquistely-crafted tunes, lyrics written with enough intelligence to be interesting but without the impulse to beat you over the head with how intelligent they are, and a voice you'll never get tired of." I've listened to this CD four times and I still can't tell you which song is my favorite: each and every one is a contender. And if you've ever asked yourself "What would life be like if Aimee Mann had been one of the Turtles?" this is the answer.
Simply Fantastic!!
author: Mike AshtonThis is Susan's 2nd CD following on from "This Thing".The lyrics are somewhat more melancholic on this CD but the music is upbeat & instantly catchy.Susan has the skill to turn these sometimes dark lyrics into a 3 minute pop song that will have you tapping your feet & singing along.She has an incredible voice with incredible range & the production is top drawer.It's hard to believe that some label hasn't taken a chance & signed her up.Yes, she's THAT good!! Take a chance & buy this CD, you won't be diappointed & you'll always be glad you did.
