2009 Roots and Traditional Album of the Year: Solo!

"Her solo work jumps genre barriers with the ease of an Olympic hurdles champion... She's equally at home in folk, blues, pop and country, and has come up with her best work yet here. Her new CD, Happy Here, marks her as a roots-based songstress of real skill and artistic depth...."

Kerry Doole, Exclaim Magazine

Just released: "Happy Here"

Yay - some fun news!

I found out last week that my co-writer Dan Kershaw and I won 1st place in the International Songwriting Competition - Blues Category with our co-write Sometimes I Think I Can Fly. The song was originally written on spec for a movie; it was recorded by my trio The Marigolds and appears on our album That's the State I'm In. You can hear the track here

SOCAN also posted an article about all the Canadian winners in the contest - you can read that here.

I'm getting ready to head of to British Columbia for a couple of weeks - adventures there will include a house concert in Courtenay, teaching and more concerts at the Hornby Island Blues Workshop, another concert with my pal Rick Fines in Vancouver on Monday, May 17th for the folks at Old Crow House Concerts and celebrating my nephew's 9th birthday!

Thanks for reading - I'll write again soon...

Take care,

Suzie
