She’s been recording her new album, Singing In The Dark, at Ross’ studio for the past few months and she’s releasing it at the end of this month.

I’ve heard some rough mixes of the record and it’s beautiful and ambitious and searingly passionate. Susan’s devastating, keening voice transforms poems written by a number of writers suffering from depression and mental ill health into searing flights of lyrical and melodic beauty, featuring some of New York’s finest musicians. It’s an extraordinary record. And she needs to finish it. She has, yes, a Kickstarter project to help her do this.

Susan is 3 days away from her funding deadline and she’s really close to making it. Take a minute to listen to what she says in the video and listen to some excerpts of the songs. She tells a compelling story about this album.

You sign your name, I take a breath
You tell a joke and no one laughs
You sweat, I shake
When our smiles don’t know which way to go
Can we watch them melt away?

I just want to see you cry
Cry that pleasant smile
From my sight

I am full to the brim with Mister Bogeyman
He’s running all around in me today
He’s cutting my life into shredded plans
to cook up for his morning brunch buffet
