about the artist

Sue Brescia began her career as a singer in a top
40 band at the age of 17, while also performing in
various cabarets and theaters. After several summers in stock theater, a cabaret performance for members
of the Royal Family, appearances at New York's Catch
A Rising Star, she earned her equity card and began auditioning for Broadway. During that time she had to put her career on hold while battling a rare cancer. Through that period in her life Sue began writing songs and produced her first release, Tree of Life.
Today, this singer/songwriter/musician's new release, Hope Rising, featuring all original material, is a testament to her poetic and gripping lyrics and her emotionally heartfelt vocal. While it has been a 2-1/2 year journey to bring Hope Rising into fruition, rest assured you will be touched by these hope-filled, genuinely honest songs about love, life and loss.
