I’m a singer, songwriter and vocal coach in Nashville, TN. Born and raised in Berkeley California with the hippies and the radicals and yes, I’m a long way from home but I like it here.
I’ve sung in rock, a cappella, jazz, Motown, acoustic, folk and a bunch of hybrid bands, but these days I’m writing more country and americana songs. I'm not touring as much as I used to but I play out in Nashville pretty regularly. I released a solo CD in 2005, three of these sound clips are from it and you can hear more here. One of these sound clips is a montage of some of my country song demos. If you want to hear more of those go to my Susan's Country Demos page.
I’m a voice coach too, if you are a singer and want some free singing advice go to my teaching page , I have lots of free articles about singing posted there. Or go to my Singing Help Page . This has a bunch of cool links including links to the free articles. It also has links to all the books and CDs about singing I’ve released, including ones on how to harmonize , voice technique , and jazz singing, vocal style and scat singing CDs.
More bio: BA UC Santa Cruz (go banana slugs), MA SF State, lived in LA for twelve years where I met my husband Tom Manche . We recorded five albums with Susan's Room , toured all over, did the usual indie band thing. In 2002 we traded our dinky house in West Hollywood for a house plus recording studio in the woods on the west end of Nashville. No kids, yes two neurotic, beloved rescue dogs Artie and Ruby.
