Suzie Ungerleider

Suzie Ungerleider was born in Northampton, Massachusetts but raised in Vancouver, British Columbia. She is an American-Canadian alternative country singer-songwriter who began performing under the name Oh Susanna in the mid-1990s, winning instant praise for her striking voice and poetic songcraft. She played her first show under the name Oh Susanna at the Railway Club in Vancouver in July 1995, and released her first independent recording, a seven-song EP, in 1997. At approximately this time, she decided to relocate to Toronto after attending Blue Rodeo's Stardust Picnic festival. Ungerleider chose to perform under the name Oh Susanna, alluding to the classic American folk song 'Oh! Susanna', rather than her given name as a means of keeping her private and professional lives separate. She has released eight more albums, including 'Sleepy Little Sailor' (2001), 'Oh Susanna' (2003), 'Short Stories' (2007), 'Soon the Birds' (2011), 'Namedropper' (2014), 'A Girl in Teen City' (2017) and 'Decemberly' (2018). Her recordings have featured guest musicians Luke Doucet, Justin Rutledge, Burke Carroll, Bazil Donovan and Jim Cuddy of Blue Rodeo, Ruth Moody of The Wailin' Jennys, and members of Weeping Tile. Plans to begin recording a new album were sidetracked in 2013 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. In 2021, she announced that she was retiring the Oh Susanna stage name, after learning more about the complicated racial history of the song 'Oh! Susanna'. After 23 years away chasing dreams in Toronto, three-time JUNO nominee Suzie Ungerleider returned home to Vancouver. Uncut Magazine describes 'Among the Evergreens' as 'thoughtful, luminous, expressive' and featured it as Americana Album of the Month for June 2025.
