Having spent her first 18 years growing up in a small town on the edge of the Brecon Beacons in South Wales, Susy has always been in love with melody and song. This underpins both her writing and performing and is a fundamental part of who she is as an artist. Studying piano from the age of six and teaching herself the guitar at 15, Susy's musical background was varied. At home, her parents introduced her to a plethora of sounds and styles, from classical arias to songs from the musicals. AT school, she developed a love for all things 80's, falling love with the tunes from Deacon Blue, Aztec Camera and Del Amitri, to name but a few.

Susy’s songs are influenced by both classical and contemporary themes which translate into melodic, honest songs that tell the ordinary story, often inspired by the everyday moments that often go unnoticed. She is heavily influenced by songwriters such as Laura Marling, Norah Jones and Simon & Garfunkel, focusing on the strength of a melodic vocal topline which often features above a piano or acoustic guitar. Her performance style is often acoustic and emphasises her vocals in a similar way to artists such as Eddi Reader and Joni Mitchell.
About me...
Singing & collaboration
I've been singing since I was 7 ...it's the most natural and enjoyable thing to do every day. I play live gigs in both my local area and further afield, mainly my own material as I'm a huge supporter of independent musicians and their material. As a singer-songwriter, I'm always looking for opportunities to sing, write and collaborate. I write and sing various genres of folk, acoustic and chilled music. I use the piano and guitar as springboards for my writing process.
I'm currently collaborating with several musicians and will have lots of lovely projects to share with you soon!
Celtic Connections 2024
I was so lucky to be share a stage with the fantastic Norman Paterson, Angus Lyon and Anna Massie in January 2024. Norman had asked me to sing backing vocals on his beautiful debut album, Torn. So, when he was asked to play the album in its entirety at the iconic Celtic Connections, I jumped at the chance to share a stage with him, alongside Angus and Anna.
