The Home of Everything Sue Pyper!
For those unfamiliar with Pyper’s music, the London born singer/songwriter immigrated to BC in 2000, where she has charmed audiences with her sweet vocals, eloquent songwriting, and unpredictable British humour. When Pyper’s first recording “Before You Learn to Fly” hit the airwaves in 2002, she received international attention including accolades from folk music notables such as New York Radio Host, Bob Sherman, performer Christine Lavine, and Sing Out Magazine - each of whom considered her a wonderful new discovery. The album received nominations in five categories in the Mpower Independent Music Awards and the title track won “Best Song” in 2003. As an entertainer, Sue’s natural ability to put audiences at ease makes her a fun and personable stage host allowing her to share her music in a way that is especially memorable. It’s not uncommon for folks to be able to recall the first time they heard her perform, and to offer their own accounts of their musical discovery. This grass roots sharing explains the popularity of her music and why she has fans from all over the world. She also performs with female trio Voices Three, who regularly perform to sold out houses, adding a sweet melodic voice and unpredictable humour to the mix.
"Not since a good friend
popped an Indigo Girls tape into my Walkman back in the late 1980s
have I been as pleasantly surprised by a folk musician as I was by
Sue Pyper. Oh, there have been individual songs that I've liked,
technical prowess that has impressed, and voices that have wowed,
but for overall musical tone, subject diversity and lyrical interest,
Pyper wins hands down."
