New Noise Magazine reviews Suzanne Sheer’s debut LP – The Blue Hour – noting, “Her vocals glide smoothly between husky Nina Simone lows and angelic Mariah Carey highs.”

Philadelphia R&B singer Suzanne Sheer’s musical journey started when she was just 14, writing songs about heavy subjects she didn’t yet fully understand. She drew inspiration from powerful female vocalists like Amy Winehouse, Etta James, Adele, and Rihanna as well as progressive acts that fused rock and electronic elements like Radiohead, Daft Punk, and The Cure. By 18 she was recording with Wiz Khalifa and Ricky P in Los Angeles. Now, she is 29 years old, back in Philly, and ready to release her debut album, The Blue Hour.

Beginning with the low drone of Adam Phillips’ pastoral bagpipes and then Kahn’s timeless folk-vocal, ‘No More a’ Whalin”  succeeds in transporting us across both time and place.  The song is held together by the low heartbeat thump of Rebecca Troon’s bodhran, beating out an absorbing rhythm, while David West and Doug Clegg deliver gorgeous, rich backing vocals, harmonies that rise and soar, lifting Kahn’s own voice. 

Using the power of music to help creatures famous for their song is a great idea.  James Kahn has teamed up with Save the Whales for this exciting project.  We urge everyone to donate to Save the Whales via this link.  On the donations page, write ‘James Kahn’ in the notes section and then you’ll receive a ‘thank you’ from Save the Whales along with a link to download the entire new album ‘By the Risin’ of the Seas’ free of charge.
