More on Suzy:
Bogguss is a living legend of country music with an impressive resume, having earned eight Top 10 hits throughout the 1990’s before exploring new music influences. You can call her a country singer, but that’s really just the beginning.
Her string of hits has stood the test of time. From Grammy Award-winning performances to platinum-selling records, she has earned her stripes as a versatile singer-songwriter, producer and road warrior along the way.
In addition to her touring gigs, Bogguss hosts Wine Down Wednesdays, a monthly livestream at 5 p.m. CST featuring singers and songwriters such as Brandy Clark, Mandy Barnett and Billy Dean. Launched in 2020, the livestreams have strengthened her bonds with both musician friends and fans. “I didn’t know how good it would be for my heart, and I didn’t predict how much it would increase the attendance at my concerts,” she comments.
Her latest album, “Prayin’ for Sunshine,” was written during the lockdown and recorded at her home. “This is the first time I’ve written my whole album,” says Bogguss. It offers a mix of Southern storytelling, gorgeous vocals and organic instrumentation that showcases her country and Americana roots.
Bogguss loves to cook, and every year for her December birthday, she hosts a party at her home in Tennessee. These evenings feature not only big pots of soup for 70 guests, but also jam sessions among her dinner guests, including Tommy Emmanuel, Keb’ Mo’, Sam Bush, Mac Davis, Gary Nicholson, and even Reba.
Her birthday dinners are memorialized in her recent book, “Suzy’s Soup Night,” a celebration of soups, stews, chilis and chowders that pairs recipes with photos by her husband, songwriter Doug Crider. Pre-autographed copies—an ideal Christmas gift for friends and family—are available for sale on her website.
THANKS FOR THE MUSIC, SUZY!
