Susie Suh
Singing and performing in choirs since she was eight years old, Suh's singing career had an unusual beginning. At the age of 8, Suh joined a Korean children's choir for a Los Angeles television station KTE. "We recorded traditional Korean folk songs and popular American music to be filmed in between shows on that station. Basically, we did singing commercials. We also traveled around the country performing and wore traditional Korean clothes and this really ugly white and blue sailor outfit."
At age 13, Suh moved away from her parent's home in Los Angeles to attend boarding school in New England. Before leaving, her older brother gave her his old guitar and Suh began taking lessons. "I learned a couple of chords and immediately started writing songs. It was very liberating and for the first time I felt I found a medium where I could really express myself." Suh wrote and performed throughout high school and in addition to playing guitar, Suh sang in an a cappella singing group, and played the harp. "After all my experiences in high school, I realized that I definitely wanted a career in music."
But that career would have to wait. Suh attended Brown University and received a bachelor's degree in English while playing music on the side. Not forgetting her dream of becoming a musician, Suh decided to dedicate three months to her music. The summer before her senior year at Brown, Suh moved into her best friend's apartment in New York City and spent her days writing and her nights playing clubs and bars in the East Village. Her performances eventually got the attention of music industry legends Charles Koppelman and Don Rubin.
In 2003, Suh signed with Epic Records making her part of very rare club of Korean-American artists signed to a major U.S. label. "I was born in America and grew up speaking English, but my parents speak a different language and are part of a different culture. I've lived half of my life on the West Coast and the other half on the East Coast," she explains. With the album completed, Suh reflects on the making of her debut: "My mission has always been to create music that transcends boundaries, to make music that is universal."
