Sutton Foster is a two-time Tony winning actress, singer and dancer who currently stars as Liza in the critically-acclaimed TV Land series, Younger, which is returning for its fifth season on June 5, 2018. Previously, Foster starred in Amy Sherman-Palladino’s ABC Family series, Bunheads. Sutton is one of Broadway’s biggest stars, performing lead roles in Anything Goes, Shrek The Musical, The Drowsy Chaperone, Little Women, Thoroughly Modern Millie and many more over the past two decades. As a solo artist, Sutton tours the country with her hit concerts. She has also graced the stages of Carnegie Hall, Feinstein’s, Lincoln Center’s American Songbook series and many others. Featuring her signature vocal stylings on classics written by musical theater luminaries including Stephen Sondheim (“Take Me to the World”), Cole Porter (“Ooh-La-La”), and Kander & Ebb (“A Quiet Thing”) as well as legendary pop songwriters such as Paul Simon (“Old Friends”) and James Taylor (“You Can Close Your Eyes”), Sutton’s long-awaited third album, Take Me to the World, takes listeners on a personal journey inspired by the birth of her daughter. Sutton, a faculty member at Ball State University, has enlisted the Ball State Symphony Orchestra and other BSU students for this recording in a special partnership, with longtime collaborator Michael Rafter producing.
A beautiful album from an immensely talented performer. Forget triple threat, Sutton is a quadruple threat….. singer, dancer, actor, and genuinely kind, generous and warm person.

In 2018, country music is still well and truly alive and kicking. We’re not talking about the alien world of mega festivals and musical compromise for the sake of commerce, we’re talking about the art of songwriting, the rootsy pull on heartstrings and mainlining of heartache and devotion through the songs and stories of musicians from across the wide Australian expanse. Take Me To Town lays its mission statement out with its title. It’s a collection of alternative country songs. 47 of them. They’re the kinds of songs you’ll hear in pubs, bars, cafes and bowling clubs on any day of the week. Whether there are five people and a dog in front of the artist or a raucous room, packed to the gunnels, hot and noisy; these musicians sing their stories and play their instruments with heartfelt conviction.
