Sue has performed for an amazing variety of events around the world from The Last Night Of The Proms to a rap CD for the top South Korean night club Pharaohs. You can even hear her recorded version of The Girl From Ipanema being played in Rio in the famous bar where the song was written.
In recent years Sue has gigged at venues including the Royal ALbert Hall, the Purcell Room, 606 Jazz Club, Birmingham Jazz Festival, Wakefield Jazz, Medway Jazz and the Stables, Wavendon.

"At last a follow up to Janette Mason's sparkling debut as leader. Alien Left Hand ....was well worth the wait…” Production **** Performance**** -- BBC Music Magazine
“…an album fizzing with fresh ideas and delights, an exhilarating musical journey .. with brilliantly original writing and inspired playing…” -- Helen Mayhew
"Every track from the rhythmic ‘NY Cab Ride’ and restless ‘4 Wheel Drive’ to the brooding ‘Mae’s Song’ has a terrific hook but it’s the way Mason switches tempo and moods that makes ALH great fun. " -- Diva Magazine
