Bio
Susan M. Carr’s love affair with the sounds of Brazilian samba was re-ignited following her “Carmen Miranda Show” at Seattle’s Bumbershoot ’91. With this desire to take Brazilian music to a new level, Susan assembled several world-class jazz musicians to help her blend the Brazilian samba with several layers of jazz, blues, and pop. This unique combination, supported by Susan’s fervent delivery and soulful intensity, takes the Susan Carr Ensemble on a new course in contemporary jazz.
