A Journey of Fearless Growth
Her musical path shows fearless growth. From school choirs to tribute shows and collaborations with South African icons, she constantly reinvents herself. Adding rhythm guitar and keys expanded her sound and deepened her stage presence. Suzanne’s love for live performance began with collaboration. Sharing energy with musicians and audiences fuels her passion. On stage, she unlocks a different energy, transforming into her larger-than-life persona.

Encouraged by her husband, she embraced every challenge. Learning new instruments keeps her performances fresh, dynamic, and leaves audiences guessing what’s next.

Two Bands, Two Energies
Performing with The Band Suzy and Road House Country Band gives Suzanne room to explore different sounds. While one leans into contemporary rock and pop-country, the other delivers high-energy covers. Her versatile voice adapts seamlessly, highlighting her range and passion.
Sharing the Stage with Icons
Performing with legends like Juanita du Plessis and Demi-Lee Moore stands out in her journey. Those collaborations showed her the power of unity, passion, and the importance of creating unforgettable shows for audiences.

Looking Ahead
Suzanne is now crafting original music. Her first release, an Afrikaans pop song with a country twist, reflects her authentic sound. Future releases promise more country-inspired originals, blending seamlessly into her band’s versatile sets.
