Susan Harper writes with sincerity and a strong sense of self. Her performance is full of passion and force. Like the provocative talents of Grace Slick, Ani DiFranco, and Natalie Merchant, Susan's authentic voice, sense of humor, and raw style define the soul of her 2008 release "Unpredictable".
"Unpredictable" dances between the sheets of musical styles.From slow ballads to high energy rock, Susan activates her songs with her own brand of folk, jazz, and funk fusion. Calling on a cast of Seattle's finest musicians, her premier CD is exactly what it says-Unpredictable. Accomplished saxophonist, Jessica Lurie (Tipton Sax Quartet), joins Susan on "Enchantment". "Sweet Valentine" features the talents of guitarist, Scott Adams (Birds May Bite). Neal Storme's electrifying guitar riffs bring out the gritty rock in "Decide".
Intent on creating a better world through music, Susan's direct lyrical approach and attitude is as accessible as it is empowering. With a solid and outspoken presence within the Seattle music community, Susan has shared the stage with local favorites such as Paula Maya, Amy Denio, Aiko Shimada, and Willow.
All songs written and arranged by Susan Harper.
