Sue Moreno

From a young age Dutch singer Sue Moreno has been interested in music, and has drawn her musical inspiration from a wide variety of sources. With her main influences being Peggy Lee, Ann-Margret, Julie London, Ella Fitzgerald and Mary Ford she also has a high regard for singers like Dean Martin, Perry Como and Elvis Presley.  When it comes to instrumental Jazz, she is a big fan of Glenn Miller, Duke Ellington and 40s swing orchestras. Her love for timeless and most of all melodic music, classic jazz standards and songs from the Great American Songbook comes across in her own music as she brings immortal classics back to life in a vibrant way.

Although Sue garnered notice as a member of the rock ‘n roll group Sue Moreno andthe Flaming Stars, after setting out in 2005 as a solo performer she pursued a more jazz-inspired path with her debut effort ‘Dream You’.  On subsequent efforts including‘Bye Bye Blues’ she also collaborated with various figures including legendary pianist Don Randi and Chris Montez. In 2010 she worked with one of her idols, the greatcomposer Michael Jarrett. She also worked with the original bandmembers of Elvis Presley in 2010 and 2011.

Moreno played at many grand festivals (Jazz in Duketown, American Music Festival)and Jazz Clubs and theatres around the world - like residential shows at the Half Note Jazz Club in Athens, Greece, but also Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Finland and France to name but a few.
At live shows, you can’t help but notice her fine intonation and relaxed sense of swing, her sultry and mellow voice and the sophisticated choice of repertoire and the joy she derives from performing. Sue contributed to various commercial ads (Viktor & Rolf’s Flowerbomb perfume line, Otazu jewellery ) and has had much coverage on TV and Radio shows across all of Europe and America including shows like RTL Boulevard, SBS Shownews, Veronica.  She has been covered in many well known magazines, newspapers and books from all over the world. She also starred as a singer, actress and dancer in various theatre shows.
