About Me

Suzy Condrad - sitting with poise and about to be unavoidably tagged 'a dusky beauty' - begins a song with spider web-fine, finger-picked guitar, and implores that someone stop the carousel from turning. Decorous second guitar and softly chorusing backing vocals add their weight to the plea. Later, houses fall down and rivers rise. Voiced with depth and the precise, just-so phrasing of 60s folk-pop, it's melodrama of the most gently seductive kind.- Julian Owen, Venue Magazine 2008
