"Suzanne Vallie writes unusual folk songs that are at times sweet and
childlike, and at other times haunting and seductive. A roots-y
aesthetic runs through her music, and her lyrics paint vivid (and often
weird) pictures of small town, rural life…Her honest, unadorned voice
rings beautifully over her often spare arrangements….Vallie's four-song
EP, Water Table, is an excellent introduction to her work, but it left
me wanting to hear more…"
- Meg Ruddick, NPR's Second Stage
I'm a Dreamer, Aren't We All
God bless Ralph Carney --> the man who always lands sunnyside up! Who else will celebrate Annette Hanshaw with you at 12AM on Valencia St.? No one else. I know that as fact.

Anna (My Only Treasure)
This tribute to my friend Anna (commissioned by her sweet husband) also stands as an ode to love. Love, she makes me look foolish and clumsy. All the same, I stand by her.
--The meanness of the world falls behind
when I see her keep me in her eyes.
In her gaze, I'd do anything to stay.
Like the reckless birds that fly in May,
I'd dare to do any trick or turn
I'd throw myself against the wind to earn
the love and the gaze of Anna.
My only treasure, my Anna---
