JuSusan's Birthday Jam

JuSusan, a unique Bay Area Soul/Jazz artist, writer, and vocalist, celebrates her birthday with you, her fam, friends and fans in the comfort of the awesomely relaxed atmosphere that only The Back Room provides. 

With strong vocals, JuSusan sings a wide spectrum of well-known and original jazz songs that reaches the soul and encourages those who hear them to live and love. She has been on the scene since the early 1990s performing in theatre, television commercials, and movies. Her vocals have been requested by innumerable public, private, governmental, and community agencies and organizations throughout California and abroad.

She considers it her highest honor that she sang in Nelson Mandela’s jail cell in 2008 at Pollsmoor Prison in Cape Town, South Africa.

JuSusan will be accompanied by her band My Company and will feature the great saxophonist Ed Gibson and the magical hands of composer James Grigsby. This celebration performance promises to give you a spirit of inspiration with an experience like none other.
