Search - SUSAN'S ROOM :: Room #5

It starts off in the bedroom and ends up on the road to Macon. In-between is a moving new collection of Susan's Room songs (plus Joe Jackson's "Be My Number Two") marked by musical and lyrical contrast. The lyrics sway from road fever to agoraphobia, from pre-wedding hope to marital discord. The music moves from beat driven jazzy folk-rock to quiet acoustic ballads and back. What ties it all together is singer-songwriter Susan Streitwieser's stand-out singing (the New Yorker: "a soulful, commanding voice"), her sharp songwriting, and inventive playing and production: "A great band" says JPFolks.com. "Susan gets my vote for lyricist of the year!"
