Bio:: Songwriter, guitarist and vocalist Suzy Connolly is a musical powerhouse who tells it like it is. Formerly the principal songwriter for Sydney-based duo Butterfly 9, Suzy is now going it alone and is about to release her debut solo album, produced by Josh Schuberth (Josh Pyke, Ben Folds) and packed full of Alternative Pop gems. It’s music that ranges from urgent to soothing, always immediate in establishing Suzy’s trademark honesty, drama and tenderness. Recently Suzy was nominated finalist in the 2011 Apra Professional Development Awards and scored Runner Up as Best Female Artist in the 7th Annual International Acoustic Music Awards as well as scoring semi finalist in two separate categories in the prestigious International Songwriting Competition. The IAMA in a recent review, described her as an 'artist to watch out for'. Suzy’s new record is a guitar pop lover’s album with plenty of emotional toughness, lyrical insights and soaring melodic vocal hooks. Some songs reflect Suzy’s recent turbulent times and this is one artist that wouldn’t have it any other way. References include Suzy’s classic pop influences such as Big Star, Aimee Mann and The Beatles alongside grittier rock bands like The Strokes and Blondie.
