Songwriter Susan Levine draws stories from the roadside of a life full of contrasts. A Harvard graduate, an actress in New York, a waitress in Santa Fe, a traveler, a music therapist, a mother, Susan chronicles the emotional and physical landscapes of the in-between -– the haves and have-nots, the loved and the abandoned, the sad but hopeful, the grays rather than the black-and-whites. A finalist in the 2005 International Songwriting Competition, the 2004 Rocky Mountain Folks Fest, and the 2004 Rose Garden Coffeehouse Performing Songwriter Competition, and an “emerging artist” at the 2002 Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, she is described by Marilyn Rea Beyer (WUMB Folk Radio) as “a smart writer with a warm voice that can send chills down your spine.”
Susan’s sophomore album, “Atlas,” is the follow-up to the critically-acclaimed “Scatter Me.” Recorded and produced by Tom Eaton at Thomas Eaton Recording in Newburyport, MA, Atlas features a core band including John Sands (Aimee Mann, Lori McKenna) on drums, Richard Gates (Paula Cole, Suzanne Vega) on bass, and Sean Staples (The Resophonics) on mandolin.
Additional players include Tom Eaton, Mark Erelli, John Curtis, Duke Levine, Rob Laurens, Jennifer Kimball and Sandy Martin.
