One of the region’s finest vocalists, international recording artist Susan Marshall began her career Off-Broadway as a leading soprano in the Rep-Company Light Opera of Manhattan. Shortly after moving back to Memphis in 1990, she began fronting rock-soul band The Mother Station and was signed to a record deal with EastWest / Atlantic Records. In 1994 they released their debut album “Brand New Bag” which peeked at #34 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock charts.

Since then, Susan’s released three critically praised solo albums — “Susan Marshall Is Honey Mouth,” “Firefly,” and “Little Red.” She has performed with the Memphis Symphony Orchestra, Memphis Jazz Orchestra, and is also known for her solo and duo performances in residency at Itta Bena.

Susan has toured all over the world as part of the Afghan Whigs as well as with Cat Power & The Memphis Rhythm Band, which included appearances on Austin City Limits, The Late Show w/David Letterman, Late Night with Conan O’Brien, and the BBC’s “Later … with Jools Holland.”

Susan is also known for her studio and/or stage work with a wide range of superstars; Lucinda Williams, Keith Richards, Norah Jones, Lenny Kravitz, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ann Peebles, North Mississippi Allstars, Alvin Youngblood Hart, Solomon Burke, Jim Lauderdale, Steve Earle, and Kirk Whalum to name a few. In the studio she has worked alongside legendary producers Tom Dowd, Chips Moman, Willie Mitchell, Jim Dickinson, Joe Hardy, John Hampton, and husband Jeff Powell. Her studio work has garnered multiple gold and platinum record awards, as well as the distinction of having sung background vocals on five GRAMMY nominated records.
