With a little bit of rock, a lot of passion, and an undeniable singer-songwriter lyricism, Susan Wendelken is causing a welcome disruption to the music scene with the release of her latest project titled Alayne’s Echo. Raised on Long Island, NY, she was immersed in music almost from infancy, with adults recognizing her extraordinary singing shortly after she learned to speak. She learned to play the piano from her mother at just three years old. Susan’s influences poured through the household speakers—iconic artists such as Carole King, The Mamas and the Papas, and Tina Turner, followed by big band jazz. Then, as a teenager, she discovered her love for heavy metal. This led to many musical contributions including songs featured in ESPN’s X Games as well as in independent and foreign films. Grammy-nominated Joaquin Lievano lauded Susan as “the best female hard rock vocalist right now.”
