“Sue’s one of those people who I’ve crossed musical paths with under the auspices of “business” who immediately became a friend rather than an associate.  Besides her immediate kindness and generosity and good humor, I was taken with her passion for the music, and her dedication to the task of bringing it to the ears of those who hadn’t heard it yet.   It’s such an obviously genuine labor of love, that you just want to jump in line and join the parade.” – Danny Schmidt
