SUE DECKER

SATURDAY OCT 6TH

“compelling and haunting . . .  delivered with the wit and compassion of 1920s and ‘30s folk traditions and fitting comfortably with the current music of Rhiannon Giddens and Samantha Fish”                           ~ Jim Martens, CFUV Blues in the Morning
​

Sue Decker’s soulful voice and slide guitar enthrall the listener while travelling through territory that is earthy and beautiful, sometimes dark and gritty, and always life-giving. Sue makes music that embodies the essence of early blues and folk with the songwriting sensibility of outlaw country: she is just as likely to meet her muse in a Bessie Smith record as she is at a Steve Earle concert, among many other places. Sue started playing music with a rented guitar at a bluegrass jam and it wasn’t long before she discovered and devoted herself to writing songs, playing the dobro, and singing the blues.
Sue followed the release of her first EP--Live at the Duncan Showroom--with a single recording “Love Never Follows the Rules” in September 2017. In her first full studio project, set to be released in 2019, Sue is excited to be collaborating with award-winning producer Wynn Gogol. On stage, Sue creates a sense of community with her playful connection to the audience and there’s plenty of tasty lap-style slide guitar, whether she is playing solo or with a band. She also shares her undeniable affinity for singing and playing vintage blues as the host of “Back Porch Blues”, a monthly acoustic blues session with a talented collective of fellow musicians.
Walk alongside a spell and have a listen.
