biographical info
From the small town of Cobourg, Ontario, comes singer/songwriter, Sue Passmore. Now a resident of the Toronto music scene, Sue’s experience runs from intimate bar/club performances as a singer/songwriter, to the Molson Amphitheatre’s House of Blues stage as a member of electro-lounge group Bluesativa, to appearances with Toronto’s Kings of Swing production.
In January of 2004, Bluesativa, which consisted of members Joel Stouffer (Dragonette), Adam King (Andy Stochansky, Adam King Production), Graeme Cornies (Voodoo Highway Music & Post Inc.), Dustin Harris (Cancel Winter), and Miss Passmore, released their self-titled album to rave reviews
from fans. As the group dissolved in 2005, Sue recorded her debut solo album, 87 Miles, which was released in January of 2006.
87 Miles is refreshingly tangible and beautifully performed. “Her lead off single "Back Home" is a wonderful up-tempo song about heartache and discovery; fans of Nelly Furtado and Sheryl Crow will appreciate Passmore's passion…” says Chris White, publisher of PartyInKingston.com. Back Home has also been featured on CBC Radio, College and internet radio, various podcasts, and was selected in February 2006 as one of the top 5 songs in the Songwriter Universe contest. Sue also collaborates with various musicians and producers in what seems to be the characteristic approach of the independent music scene today.
