## Resource

Suzie Ungerleider has long been one of Canada’s most evocative songwriters — though for years, we’ve known her as Oh Susanna . These days, she’s releasing music under her own name, and she says it feels right — she says it feels like she’s stripped herself of a costume she’d been wearing. Her new album, Among the Evergreens , written mostly while walking forest trails near her home in Vancouver, is her most personal yet. Suzie calls the songs chapters in her life — stretching from her own wild teenage years to now, raising a teenage daughter of her own. It’s an album rooted in memory and change: about origin stories, about what it means to walk forward while constantly looking back, and about how becoming a parent can completely rewrite the way you understand your own past. In our chat, we talk about that strange time-travel of songwriting, the wild ride that is parenthood, and what happens when the life you're living becomes the material for your songs up front and unfiltered. suzieungerleider.com Wanna get in touch?
