Singer-songwriter Susie Suh continues to captivate audiences around the world with her soulful vocals and introspective, emotionally-stirring lyrics. Originally from Los Angeles and of Korean descent, Susie recently moved and currently resides in Paris, France.
After a self-titled debut album, Suh begins a new chapter in her musical journey with the release of a two-part EP entitled The Bakman Tapes.
Suh states, “I liked the idea of putting songs out that are more raw in form. And I wanted to pay homage to the time period in which I lived in Los Angeles post debut album, to pay my respects and release the songs that were created there.” And so “The Bakman Tapes EP” were conceived.
Suh initially wrote and recorded songs in her home in Los Angeles in addition to recording in major studios around LA. However, she discovered that the songs recorded in a more homegrown manner were coming out more alive and authentic. “I recorded in my bedroom and bathroom at 3 am in the morning, and during the day as planes were flying by, and I also recorded in people’s makeshift converted home studios. And it was those songs that I really seemed to like and want to share,” Suh says.”
“The Bakman Tapes, Pt. 1 – EP” is the first chapter of these recordings. It is three songs with the single “Feather in the Wind” (co-produced by Team Penner) the highlight.
Part two was co-produced by Bryan Cook (engineer & mixer for Nigel Godrich, Beck, Jem, The Bird & The Bee) and will be released in 2010.
