FOR TICKETS: 410-822-7299 An Evening with Susan Werner and the band
With 6 albums under her belt, an active touring career throughout the U.S. and a string of accolades from the likes of The Washington Post, The Village Voice and The New Yorker, Susan Werner has become one of the defining artists of the folk music genre. Her songs effortlessly slide between folk, jazz and pop, and are delivered with a sassy wit and classic mid-western charm. Her new album "The Gospel Truth" explores the role of the Church in contemporary American life. Quite possibly the first "agnostic gospel" album, her new songs speak in a wide variety of voices, from faithful and traditional to the critical and even the unconvinced. For many of her upcoming US tour dates, Werner is traveling with a rootsy americana/bluegrass ensemble that includes sizzling harmonica, percussion, bass and back up vocals from Trina Hamlin, Colleen Sexton, Allison Bazarko, and Greg Holt.
A project sure to confirm Werner's reputation as "one of the most innovative songwriters working today..." (Chicago Tribune)
"Susan Werner, a clever songwriter and an engaging performer, brings literacy and wit back to popular song." (The New Yorker)
