Opener: The Sweet Maries
The Sweet Maries—Amy Shoemaker and Susie Lofton—are a harmony forward, female fronted singer-songwriter acoustic band that plays original songs and select covers from the ’60s and ’70s. The genres touched upon include Americana, Gospel, Folk, Jazz and Rock. Great original songwriting, gorgeous harmony, and loads of power-stance attitude. https://thesweetmaries.com
Headliner: Sue Fink
Chicago singer/songwriter Sue Fink has been entertaining audiences since 2001 with her unique perspective on the world. Now she’s releasing her fourth full-length album, Leaves of Summertime. Sue finds the world of nature to be inspirational, calming, and necessary to sanity. Her frequent nature walks inspired not only these eleven songs, but also her photos. As a companion piece to her CD, Sue is also releasing a book with both her lyrics and accompanying nature photos.
For this show, Sue’s band is comprised of three of the superb musicians who worked on this recording: John Abbey (bass/guitar), who also recorded and produced this album; Brian Wilkie (pedal steel guitar); and Meg Thomas (drums/percussion). John Abbey also recorded and produced this album. These three musicians are known throughout Chicagoland and more, for their expertise and musical intuition; you’ll find them playing with many bands, in many genres. All have worked with Sue before, and she is thrilled to have them join her for her CD release show! (possibly some special music guests as well!)
