About
'A performance by Susanna Orr Holland is like a meeting of the east and the west, the rational and the intuitive, the conscious and the unconscious. Originally from Australia, Susanna performs songs from Scotland, Ireland and India with a remarkable authenticity and an intensity that can be spellbinding. A multi-instrumentalist playing both guitar and Indian harmonium, it is her beautiful and powerful voice that is her main instrument. Sometimes reminiscent of Kate Bush at her creative peak fused with the atmospheric Celtic spirituality of Enya, Susanna is a prolific songwriter who writes soulful songs that yearn for escape from or a solution to the malaise of modern times, at times acutely observational of the mindless repetitively and despair of a myriad of urban lifestyles.'
