SUSAN MARSHALL

Susan Marshall will be releasing her new album Little Red through Madjack Records on April 28, 2009. Recorded during several trips between Memphis and London by Jeff Powell (Afghan Whigs, Primal Scream and Bob Dylan) and Henry Olson (Primal Scream, Beth Orton, and Nico), Little Red further solidifies the often overlooked connection between the soul music of Memphis and the club scene of London. Celebrated author Robert Gordon (It Came From Memphis) writes in the liner notes that “the album conjures Memphis of the 60’s and 70’s while rooted solidly in the present day.” For her third solo release, the critically acclaimed Marshall teams with Lucinda Williams for a duet of “Don’t Let Me Down,” calls on singer Greg Dulli to back her on “Femme Fatale,” and scores a guest appearance from Al Green’s legendary sideman Teenie Hodges for “Oh My Soul.”

Ms. Marshall has sung with the likes of Cat Power, The Afghan Whigs, Lenny Kravitz, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Primal Scream and Lucinda Williams. Just this last year Susan, recorded vocals for Lucinda’s new CD Little Honey, was featured on Maynard James Keenan’s Puscifer disc, sang on Solomon Burke’s new album, wrote a song on Katherine McPhee’s debut CD, sang all over Australian Idol Guy Sebastian’s record and contributed vocals to the soundtrack for the Denzel Washington movie The Great Debaters. In February Susan was called to sing for a Klaus Voormann (Pastic Ono Band, Manfred Mann’s Earth Band) project. Marshall was also honored in March by the Memphis Music Commission “for her unyielding support and contribution to Memphis Music.”
