Suzie Ungerleider

After 23 years away chasing dreams in Toronto, 3X JUNO nominee Suzie Ungerleider (formerly Oh Susanna) returned home to Vancouver, drawn by its salt air and towering trees. Her new album, Among the Evergreens (2025), is a deeply personal journey through time, tracing her path from youthful dreams to the wisdom of experience.

“It’s about being like a tree with all those rings around you, the layers of your life telling you who you are and where you've been,” she says.  Imagery of the outdoors, of green valleys and trees shedding their leaves, infuses this new collection and it is garnering high praise as one of her best.


Uncut Magazine describes Among the Evergreens as “thoughtful, luminous, expressive” and featured it as Americana Album of the Month for June 2025. Mojo Magazine’s four-star review glowed that these 10 new songs “are about as sweet as folk-Americana comes.”


Suzie brings her stories to life with her captivating voice and raw honesty. Inviting you into her world through poetic lyricism and mesmerizing melodies, she shares her experiences from teenage-hood to motherhood. “Here I am making songs back among the evergreens, a prodigal daughter, who is now a mother, asking, who was I then and who am I now, where have I been and what did I learn along the way?”



Kim Beggs


Celebrating over 20 years as a recording artist, Kim Beggs offers her seventh solo release, Beneath Your Skin (2024), wielding her voice through the rough edge of sweetness to explore themes of family history, survival and wild habitats. Songs of light and shadows are her signature - Kim Beggs embraces the darkness of our world, ensures hope illuminates each song and revels in the maturity and sure-sightedness of a constantly evolving artist. 


Kim Beggs' honest, distinct and ethereal vocal approach - whispered remembrances, intimacies and strong empathy - is the conduit between introspective, poetic compositions and deliberately sparse arrangements, bringing to mind the varied approaches of Neil Young and Nick Drake. Qualities making Beneath Your Skin immediately engaging for both the initiated and new listeners.


Born in Quebec and raised mostly in Ontario, Kim Beggs found herself in the Yukon more than thirty years ago, immediately embracing her new home and setting out on a musical journey bringing her to record with some of the most intriguing names in Canadian roots music production -  Bob Hamilton, Steve Dawson, David Travers-Smith, and the late David Gavin Baxter. For this album, she traveled to Montreal to record with Howard Bilerman (Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Leonard Cohen, The Weather Station) at Hotel2Tango studios.


Nominated for 13 music awards, Kim continues with Beneath Your Skin to explore her world, the people, emotions, and events that inspire her.


"Kim Beggs observes the world with acute vision, clearly placing her convictions on the side of humanity." - Fervor Coulee Roots Music Opinion


"Whatever 'It' is, Kim Beggs has It ... Her songs and singing are so strong and emotional, and her songs stand up with just her voice and guitar." - Howard Bilerman, BYS album producer
