LITTLE SUE: Chimneys & FishesCHIMNEYS AND FISHES

iTunes "...the sweetest-singing honky-tonk angel that Portland has to offer...Little Sue recalls a younger Emmylou Harris...Straight to the heart; a bullseye all the way. " The Rocket ~ July 1997~

LITTLE SUE: CrowCROW

iTunes "Her originals would be just as comfortable in Neil Young's “After the Gold Rush” back pocket as they would be in Nashville or Bakersfield 25 years ago. The lead-off track “Down to You”, is simply a great song for any era or any place. “Crow” is a big statement...music that falls outside the borders of calculated marketing schemes and tedious trends. She'll be ridin' high when the rest of this town runs out of hair dye."TheRocket~April1999~

LITTLE SUE: The Long GoodbyeTHE LONG GOODBYE

iTunes "A gorgeous song cycle of true love in decline, the latest from the alt-country darling Susannah Weaver is a gem. Written with unflinching honesty and admirable simplicity...it's further argument that wider recognition for this artist is inevitable." Marty Hughley~TheOregonian~January,2003

LITTLE SUE: Shine SHINE

iTunes "Singer-songwriter Little Sue never fails to amaze. On her latest, Shine, she truly does, offering up a drinking man's cocktail of country-rock and folk-pop...Little Sue may not be a nationally recognized name -- but she should be. Shine is yet another feather to put in her cap, a well-written, well-executed record that is honest and pure, melodically rich, and as warm and inviting as they come. I'll give it an A." Alex Steininger- In Music We Trust~ 2005~

This beautifully vibrant songstress is no less than a heroine of the tender, enormously perceptive human heart; a woman who has heightened receptors for these often unspoken yet painful beauties of life and the little whispers in every day moments that most people miss (unless they’re lucky enough to recognize them in her songs). Capturing these morsels of bittersweet humanity with grace, poignancy and goosebumpy honesty, she turns them into sparkling art. With her distinct and signature sweetly-pinched vocals, Little Sue and her music are arguably the most lovable act in the Portland scene. CD Baby~July, 2007

   About Little Sue
Born in 1970. Moved to Portland in '92 as backup guitar, tambourine player, singer in a band. Started writing in '95, after much gnashing of teeth, thanks to Jim Boyer, the Michael Hurley album "The Long Journey" and Courage. I've been writing the same song ever since. Small amount of regional touring with Casey Neill. Mostly a local-yokel. Opened for Roger McGuinn of Byrds fame and for Bob Dylan of Bob Dylan fame. Shared the stage with all of my favorite, kick-ass, local musician friends: see influences (all bad!) on the other side of my space. I am a mother. My son is 3 and he kicks ass, too. I would open for him anytime.   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Great new tracks. Missed the Biddy Mc show because the dang driver wanted to drive to Albany to see Tower Of Power...unworthy trade off in my eyes.

Hey Sugar! Molte grazie for the sweet note. My birthday was celebrated in true Bull fashion, at the craps tables in Las Vegas. Lara, Chet and I had a hot roll! I won't lie: It was very stimulating.

Cocktail soon?
