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 forthcoming acoustic album 'The Coat'.
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.
"Blueberry Pie is a great album" - Cerys Matthews, BBC Radio 2 & 6 Music

"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.
Es war ein Hörerlebnis vom Feinsten. Unsere Gäste waren begeistert.
Wir freuen uns jetzt schon auf das kommende Jahr 2020.
Am 30. Mai 2020 treten sie wieder bei uns im Cafe Waldkristall auf."

"The duo Simon Campbell and Suzy Starlite performed on April 26, 2019 Unplugged in the Kulturcafé next door in Winsen. You have, amongst others, rock and blues pieces from their album "Blueberry Pie" played and managed to thrill the audience. The audience and the organizers were delighted with the performance.
We are thrilled to welcome them back on February 21, 2020!"

"Great music by two 'lifeblood' musicians. They are very impressive instrumentalists, who possess a great gift of being very professional with playful ease. They live and love what they do. Every song gives you goosebumps feeling and was a listening experience at its best; our guests were thrilled.
We are already looking forward to them returning on May 30, 2020 to perform again at Cafe Waldkristall."

Urania Theatre, Köln, Germany
"What a great concert! Suzy Starlite-Campbell and Simon Campbell had it: soulful ballads and finely spun blues switched with greasy, rocking songs and fast-paced tunes. The two Englishmen already conquered the hearts of the Talkin Blues Revisited Show audience at Urania Theater Köln with the first song. Thank you both, you won my heart too - you are lovely guys!"

Schützenfest Thören, Winsen (Aller), Germany
"Wie kann man ein einigermaßen verständliches Feedback zu einer 30-minütigen Unplugged-Show der Starlite Campbell Band bei einem niedersächsischen Dorf-Schützenfest geben? In einem Zelt, vor etwa 250 nichtsahnenden Schützen, die normalerweise erwartet hätten, dass der DJ so langsam die traditionelle Schlager-Party ins Rollen bringt? Als Vorsitzender des Schützenvereins versuch' ich's mal... Ich schnappte mir das Mikrofon, um die beiden Musiker anzukündigen: "Begrüßt mit einem warmen Applaus Suzy und Simon aus England!" Die Thörener Schützinnen und Schützen gehorchten artig. Die Show begann. Zunächst zeigten sich die Thörener verhalten abwartend. Nach wenigen Momenten von "Misgivings" sah man, wie die ersten Füße im Takt auf den Zeltboden tippten. Dann kamen die ersten Leute näher an die Bühne. Und sie begannen, im Rhythmus mitzuklatschen. Immer mehr Leute trauten sich nach vorne und tanzten. Nach nicht einmal zwei Minuten hatten Suzy und Simon das Zelt im Griff. "It started raining." Plötzlich rief mir mein Nebenmann, der Vorsitzende unseres befreundeten Schützenvereins aus Hodenhagen, folgende Sätze ins Ohr: "Seh' Dir die beiden bloß mal an und hör' genau hin. Die spielen nicht einfach nur spitzenmäßig Gitarre. Die unterhalten sich buchstäblich durch ihre Instrumente. Und scheinen sich dabei blendend zu verstehen..." Besser kann man's eigentlich nicht beschreiben. Das waren 30 magische und unvergessliche Minuten brillianter, handgemachter und grundehrlicher Musik von zwei Spitzenkönnern beim Thörener Schützenfest. Danke, Suzy. Danke, Simon. "

"How can you give a comprehensible review of an unplugged 30 minute Starlite-Campbell-Show, performed in a Lower Saxony village 'Schützenfest' tent for a crowd of maybe 250 people who would normally have expected the DJ to get their traditional party started...?? Well - let me as the shooting club's president give it a try...
I grabbed the microphone to announce the two musicians: "Welcome with a warm applause Suzy and Simon from England!" "Please give Suzy and Simon a warm round of applause!"
They did, of course. And the Thören people were standing there, at first. Listening. Then they started to move their feet to the rhythm. And then they moved closer to where Suzy and Simon were playing. And they started clapping their hands. "It started raining..." And then, all of a sudden, the president of the Hodenhagen shooting club, who stood next to me, whispered the following sentence in my ear: "Look at them closely, Peter and listen carefully. They are not simply playing the guitar, which they are doing fuckin' well. They are literally communicating with each other. And they wouldn't give a shit about what's happening around them..."
And he was damn' right. "Lay down, Sally." 30 magic and unforgettable minutes of brilliant handmade music at the Thören Schützenfest. Thank you, Suzy and Simon."
