Susan Picking Mini Bio
Susan Picking, a Long Beach singer/songwriter, grew up in Michigan playing the piano and cello. She moved out West to California and began studying voice, which reawakened her interest in music. This led her to study music privately and at Long Beach City College.
She started writing her own music about 5 years ago. Her Irish Roots drew her to traditional Irish and Sean Nos singing, which is still a great love. Her major musical influences are 70's folk rock with the likes of Carole King, James Taylor, Van Morrison, and Billy Joel. Other musical genres creep in with her overall love of music with the super Greats such as Ray Charles and Willie Nelson. Contemporary idols are Norah Jones and Diana Krall.
“Down in Your Soul” is her first release consisting of 10 songs that are spiritual in nature and about the journey of life and the lessons within. Susan can be seen and heard locally in Southern California and the L.A. Basin. |
