   關於 suzannah espie
Suzannah Espie is a gem, and in time will assume the mantle of one of Australia’s great vocal matriarchs” DB Magazine

“There’s no shortage these days of fey-voiced singer/songwriters. So thank the heavens and the lung gods for Suzannah Espie, a woman who’s not afraid to sing, really sing. And yowza, can she.” **** The Age

“Some of the finest country-soul vocals you’ll hear in your life” ***** MAG

“Espie’s performance transcended the essence of blues that was home to artists like Janis Joplin and Joni Mitchell.” Faster Louder

Suzannah Espie was born in England, brought up in WA and found herself in Melbourne at 18. Studying composition at Latrobe Uni, she graduated with distinction and has spent the subsequent years forgetting most of what she learned.

" Everything I sing is from my heart, " she says, and those lucky souls who have floated on Suzannah's sound through the days of GIT and The Last Word would certainly swear to that. Ms Espie sings her songs honestly, with art but no artifice, and her voice is so rich and satisfying, so musical, that little else is needed. Her original songs brim with soul and country attitude, mixing her keen eye with her gentle heart; they ring with conviction and warmly wrap the listener in tenderly observed, sweetly rendered experience.

Suzannah and pianist Andrew 'Big Boy Lemonade' Ogburn received Australia's highest blues accolade in 2008, winning the MBAS Blues Performer of the Year Award and flying to Memphis, Tennessee, to represent their country amongst 200-odd finalists from around the world. Whilst in the USA, Suzannah was able to visit the church of soul legend Al Green, and witnessed a service there, which she says, "reminded me of how much the sheer joy of music means to me."

Suzannah has spent most of ’09 touring to promote her new album First and Last Hotel produced by acclaimed singer/songwriter Charles Jenkins (Ice-cream Hands). Like her debut solo effort A Few More Days, First and Last Hotel has garnered rave reviews both in Australia and abroad.

About "A Few More Days"...

On A FEW MORE DAYS, hear the intriguing new voice of SUZANNAH ESPIE, a voice that is at once as smooth as a Southern Belle's taunt and as strong as a front bar fist.

Some may have heard of Suzannah Espie as one of the three-part harmonisers from country-rock outfit GIT. The Gitgals recorded several successful albums earlier in the naughties, including the centrepiece FLOWERS, amd a collaboration with US guitar legend Bill Kirchen on SATELLITE. GIT were festival favourites in Australia and toured several times in the US where, for one South-by-Southwest in particular, the band was the toast of Texas.

Now, SUZANNAH ESPIE has emerged as an astounding singer and songwriter in her own right. Her performances are mesmerising: you are lulled by a softness in her voice and then punched in the nose with its sassy strentgh. And the songs themselves are also strong. Suzannah has credits on the sountrack to the film LOOK BOTH WAYS and the TV show LAST MAN STANDING. Alongside her band THE LAST WORD, Suzannah's songs have acquired both the grittiness of the inner-city and the openness of country Australia.

"On a Few More Days (her) voice is a real surprise. (She sounds) like a white soul singer." Inpress Magazine

"Suzannah's songs are the standouts. Just check out "I Don't Know if You're the One" - a stunning piece of work" - Jeff Jenkins, Triple R

"It's not easy to deliver such traditional, cry-into-your-beer type stuff with enough personality to prevent it from sounding stale and awkward. Thanks to Espie's golden tonsils, A Few More Days pulls it off, gracefully bridging the span between a rural Tennessee beer barn and a Melbourne pub." Rhythms Magazine

"Suzannah Espie has proved beyond a doubt at ther album launch...that she's got one hell of a voice and she's not afraid to use it. Ranging from gentle ballads to flat-out soul belters that blew the lid off the joint. Suzannah and her band, the awesomely talented, tight and just right Last Word turned on one of the gigs of the year!" Cheap Thrills Magazine

"The live takes errupting with vitality, Espie's voice swings between commanding and tender as she stamps her identity on a selection of covers and originals" Inpress Magazine

(please see my blog): 
TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001 

Where traditions are not so rare; 
    Sea, country and works scent the air; 
A multitude of monuments, 
    Planted tubs and patterned pavements. 

The longish pedestrian malls; 
    The remnants of defensive walls; 
Historic buildings are a gauge 
    Of the respect for heritage. 

Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; 
    Estuaries guarded by shields; 
Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; 
    Romantic-ruin go-betweens. 

Rivers in parts licked by trees, 
    Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, 
And crossed by practical delights - 
    Varied spans, forming pleasing sights. 

Fine churches headed at Durham; 
    Football kits ad infinitum; 
Kept castles - one for study; 
    Masonry behind masonry. 

And, with moulding-works out that way, 
It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog): 
WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN 

Once drove an old sedan, up north, 
From a place in Sydney to Cairns; 
Then to Kuranda I went forth, 
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market, 
With fresh fruits of tropical kind; 
Walked to the creek through lush thicket - 
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe; 
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, 
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, 
You go walkabout with your pen.” 

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago, 
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
