Susan has spent the last few years honing her craft as a solo performer.
A songwriter of hidden depths, with a timeless voice that is equal parts balm and blowtorch, she is audacity personified, a free spirit, a real performer.
Since the release of the critically acclaimed collaboration album with Mick Flannery ‘In The Game’, Susan has toured extensively across Europe and North America, performing both with Mick and solo on headline tours, festival stages and as an invited guest to an array of artists including Phoebe Bridgers, Calexico, Jamie Cullum, Valerie June and The Teskey Brothers.
Described already by Clash as “Superb” and the Sunday Times as simply “Exquisite” alongside previous nominations for the Radio 1 ‘Best Female Folk Artist’ and the Choice Music Prize.
Susan's new solo album Now in a Minute came out on September 20th 2024 and went straight to No. 1 on the Independent Album charts, described by Hotpress as an “Artist working at the top of her game..”and by Rolling Stone as 'An album of great intimacy'
This is Susan's debut headline tour of New Zealand, having only performed once before in 2019 as part of the Sharon Shannon band at the WOMAD festival where she was a festival favourite.
