About Me

View Suss’s EPKSüss sounds like Joni Mitchell and Ricki Lee Jones ate pineapple for brunch and went on a wild bike ride with Tori Amos and Jane Siberry. Süss’s sweet voice accommodates storytelling, hymns of the reformation, jazz, and folk balladry with an edge. But don’t be fooled. Süss lays bitterness and naivete wide open.Süss is currently done her first record with juno award winning producer Dan Donahue. It will be released to the public on November 1st! It is coming to cdbaby.com soon!Süss is a bandleader as well as a solo performer. She has conceived of and produced several fantastic projects where she led the house band: a live singing drag king show, the Winnipeg PRIDE Circus cabaret 2005, the International Drag King Extravaganza 7 live performance brunch in Winnipeg, the 2006 Winnipeg PRIDE cabaret - Inside the Emerald City where she played the wizard, Dorothy, and Marian the Librarian, as well as "She who searches for Kitten Tongue", and a nonette at the vintage Park Theatre. Süss has hosted several Women’s Cabarets, including events for International Women’s Day and Femfest (Sarasavati Productions).
