Suzy says, “The songs are timeless, but over the past 25 years I feel like I’ve grown as a vocalist, and when we started recording Aces Redux I got so excited because these songs took on a whole new life that is more representative of who I am and what I do now.” Anyone who listens will agree that her creativity, tenacity and talent have aligned on this album and will enthrall long-time and new fans alike.
