SUZY STARLITE & SIMON CAMPBELL | DUO
As songwriters, Suzy and Simon love to play intimate shows in a wide variety of venues ranging from cavernous churches in Australia, art centres, outdoor forests in Germany, music bars to house concerts in Europe.
They perform original material from their worldwide critically acclaimed debut album Blueberry Pie plus tracks from Simon Campbell's first two solo albums: ThirtySix, which gained him a British Blues Awards nomination and acoustic album The Knife featuring Andy Cutting, BJ Cole and Andy Seward.
New songs hot out of the creative oven are always on the menu, including music from their band new album The Language of Curiosity (set for release on October 8, 2021) and forthcoming acoustic album 'The Coat' due in 2022.
Suzy began her musical career in the acoustic UK folk scene performing at Winchester Folk Festival, Sandbach Folk Festival, Middlewich Folk & Boat Festival, The Mean Fiddler, London to name a few; it's a place that always feels like home.
2021 sees the duo writing and recording new British folk album 'The Coat' at their Supertone Records recording studio near Lisbon, Portugal which is set for release early 2022.
As Fylde Guitars endorsees, the album will also feature Suzy's mighty King John acoustic bass and Simon's beautiful sounding Touchstone walnut mandolin.
Suzy and Simon take you on a musical journey of British folk, singing real songs and telling stories about the people they meet and the places they have travelled, making for a very entertaining and engaging show.

"Großartige Musik von zwei Herzblut Musikern. Jeder Song beschert Gänsehaut Feeling. Wirklich sehr beeindruckende Musiker, die eine große Gabe besitzen, mit spielerische Leichtigkeit sehr Proffessionel zu sein. Sie leben und lieben das was sie tun.
