Imagine a cross between Natalie Cole, Diana Krall and Bette Midler. Add a dash of Louis Armstrong and you might get some idea of Suede's unique talents and charm. Think sophisticated pop/jazz, think naughty blues with a sizzling trumpet, think love songs that make you swoon, think funny, think Wow, what a voice! Think sassy, classy and fun! Suede's latest CD, "Dangerous Mood" was recorded at Bennett (as in Tony) Studios in New York with her own hand picked 14 piece big band to celebrate her first 25 years on her own record label, Easily Suede Music. She tours extensively in the US, Europe and as far away as New Zealand and Australia, to full houses and rave reviews. This Diva la Difference has appeared on ABC's 20/20, NPR, MTV, and in the film "A Simple Matter of Justice". Her DVD "Suede, Live at Scullers Jazz Club" is currently a PBS special airing on over 50 stations nationally. Her rendition of the Roxanna Ward/Lynn DeFino song "Remember Who You Are" was recently featured on the soap opera, "The Young and the Restless" and is featured on HRC's compilation disc,"Being Out Rocks" with other artists of note such as Sarah McLachlan, Rufus Wainright, k.d.Lang, Harvey Fierstein, Janis Ian, Cyndi Lauper, The B52's and others. She also holds the distinction of being the first and only female member of the world renowned a cappella group The Flirtations, seen in Jonathan Demme's film "Philadelphia." Her recent CD "On the Day We Met" features "Emily Remembers" which became the number 1 song for the year on WJZW jazz radio in Washington, DC. With a strong belief in the responsibility that comes with any degree of celebrity status, she has helped raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for various causes she supports, including affordable housing, Breast Cancer awareness and research, AIDS funding, Alzheimer's Care and research, Animal rights and many others. And, she is FUN! From unbelievable a cappella to "bring down the house" belting blues, Suede delivers it all with her own unique blend of warmth, wit and musical artistry. "A great voice, even better enthusiasm and an almost giddy delight at entertaining audiences that, if bottled, would make every anti-depressant on the market obsolete." "Precisely elegant phrasing, sheer pizzazz, emotional transparency that's gripping to watch" "Voices like hers come along maybe once in a generation. A spectacular evening of song and style!" "A great pop and jazz stylist of all manner of material. Her voice is pure, marvelously musical!" |
