Have a listen: Still Believe http://www.food4thought.tv/BB/werner1.mp3 St Mary's Of Regret http://www.food4thought.tv/BB/werner2.mp3 About Susan Werner.... Susan Werner ( www.susanwerner.com ) was raised in rural Iowa but began her professional music career in Philadelphia, after studying classical voice at Temple University. Inspired by a Nanci Griffith concert, Werner left behind her opera training and began performing as a singer-songwriter at coffeehouses throughout the northeast. She self-released her first album "Midwestern Saturday Night" in 1992 and then went on to put out "Live at Tin Angel" the following year. For years she incorporated cabaret-style numbers in her live performances, exchanging her guitar for a piano. Fans and critics alike sang her praises for this albumn, the All Music Guide, calling it "a brilliantly constructed, soulful, and cleverly tender effort by a songwriter and musician who is in such complete command of her gifts that it's almost scary." 2007 brings the release of Werner's latest endeavor, "The Gospel Truth," a collection of originals she describes as "hymns for the spiritually ambivalent." This project, surveys the wide variety of attitudes toward the Church in America and incorporates styles ranging from traditional bluegrass gospel to a hand clapping rouser for agnostics entitled "Probably Not." "Werner is one of the most innovative songwriters working today." Howard Reich, chief critic of the Chicago Tribune.

The Coffee With Conscience Concert Series http://www.coffeewithconscience.org is now in its eighth season and presents a wide variety of Singer/Songwriters who are professional and touring. The musical styles will vary but at the core you will always find 'acoustic pop.' The CWC Series is unique! It creates community around an evening of great music supporting worthy causes. The events are intended to provide the type of entertainment that is missing from so many of our communities…Entertainment that fosters community and friendship, structured around a good cause, presents a win-win situation for everyone involved.>

The 'Powerful Women of Song' Series takes place at the Watchung Arts Center http://www.watchungarts.org/PowerfulWomen.htm . Eight incredible evenings of original music are planned for the 2007-2008 Season, focussing on the passion expressed in music written and performed by women. Proceeds from ticket sales will help support the Watchung Arts Center, whose mission is to "Keep the Arts Alive" in the greater Watchung Area.
