REVIEWS

Ephemera
author: carol rosinski
I heard the song, "Great Day" on our local community radio station. I bought the CD just for that song. I actually am enjoying all of the music on this album. I had a great time listening to "The Roswell Incident" with my 15 year old daughter and discussing the history of this event.

Suzanne’s writing, and vocals are as beautiful as they are hypnotic. Her message is one of love and encouragement; especially with uplifting tracks such as “Great Day.” The “Ephemera” CD is like a breath of fresh air, and I appreciate it more deeply with each listening. Thank you Suzanne!!
