Out June 5th internationally and July 17th in North America, Beauty & Crime,
her seventh album, marks Suzanne's debut on Blue Note Records.
Inspired by the city where Suzanne grew up and still currently resides,
Beauty & Crime revolves around Suzanne's experiences in New York. Her gift
for storytelling is evident on 'New York is a Woman', which personifies the
city as a hard-luck lady whose beauty still shines. Take a tour of New York
on 'Ludlow Street', which discusses the ghosts of Lower East Side haunts and
'Zephyr & I', about a conversation Suzanne had with graffiti artist Zephyr
while walking down West End Avenue. The album also includes two of Suzanne's
most personal songs yet, a love song for her husband, 'Bound', and a
dedication to her daughter, 'As You Are Now'.
