Sue Decker December 1, 2024
Sue Decker’s rich and warm voice, distinctive slide guitar playing, and authentic songwriting make for a powerful combination. Ever since learning to play guitar in a bluegrass jam at the age of thirty-five, Sue has been discovering her truth in song. These days, her music inhabits the borderlands where blues, folk, country, and soul meet. “The comparisons Decker draws with the great Lucinda Williams and Bonnie Raitt are far from misplaced...brilliant, not to be missed at any cost.”— Patrick Dallongeville ~ Paris Move
March 2024 saw the release of Sue’s second album, Keeping Time. She collaborated with sought-after roots producer Steve Dawson to record in Nashville. Powerful, intimate, and playful songs made the cut for this long-awaited record. Killer playing by Steve on guitars and pedal steel, Dave Jacques on bass, and Justin Amaral on drums give each song a first-rate platform for Sue’s dynamic vocals. “Sue can write. Listen to this album. Go see her shows. This might just be the best thing I’ve heard all year so far. ”— Roots Music Canada
On stage, Sue serves up tasty lap-style slide guitar and a playful connection with the audience, whether playing acoustic or electric, solo or with the full band.
