With songs such as Tom’s Diner and the Grammy nominated/ MTV award winning 'Luka', Solitude Standing became Suzanne’s best known and most critically acclaimed album. Following this she became regarded as the vanguard of a new generation of female singer/ songwriters.
This one off London show will see the album performed in its entirety plus a selection of Suzanne’s other classic material.
Suzanne’s career received an extra boost in the early 90's when UK-based dance duo DNA released a remix of a cappella song 'Tom's Diner', which charted worldwide.
