Suzy Cripps

Suzy Bogguss is embracing a new chapter in her career with the release of a brand new album, Prayin’ For Sunshine. Prayin’ For Sunshine marks the first time Bogguss has penned an entire album. The impetus for the collection came during the global lockdown in 2020, when she reflected on her journey and felt compelled to share her experiences with her audience. Recorded at her long-time Tennessee home, the album captures the unvarnished essence of southern storytelling and the authentic roots of Americana music.

On her third self-released album, Suzy Bogguss, one of the finest female vocalists living and working in Nashville, allows one of her many passions to come to the surface on Swing. With Asleep at the Wheel's Ray Benson in the producer's chair, Bogguss kicks out 12 classy pop, jazz, and swing tunes with a smoking band making a timeless sound. Benson knows the feel of this music inside and out (and brought his violin player, the Stephane Grappelli-inspired Jason Roberts, along for the ride), and Bogguss, whose mom is a big Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald fan, can sing virtually anything – but has a special affinity for the swing book – with a twist. There are nuggets of the repertoire here, such as Nat King Cole's "Straighten Up and Fly Right" and Duke Ellington's "Do Nothing 'Til You Hear From Me" as well as "Comes Love" – closely associated with Billie Holiday – and the great Ken Burgan tune "Sweetheart."
