The Memphis Soul Sessions 

Songs of Love and Faith – Sue Moreno

“These songs of devotion and worship are not like anything ever made after those time period pieces – they are real love songs, they are good (…) she is amazing, I feel it, man“ – Paul Grundman, Bernie Grundman Mastering, Los Angeles, USA 

The Making of The Memphis Soul Sessions: After going through deep emotional times, Sue decided to go back to United States where she first discovered her musical inspiration. The album was recorded in Memphis in collaboration with legendary musicians of Hi Rhythm and Stax fame and eventually finished in the Netherlands. This arduous process resulted in the release of  “The Memphis Soul Sessions”. The unmistakable Memphis sound was recreated through her exotic, smoldering vocals, touching the soul with raw messages of contemporary hope and optimism. It is a very personal record written on a deeply spiritual level, in which she shares her feelings about love and faith. The result is a statement album with a pure and undeniable message, coming straight from the heart. Southern gospel, Memphis Soul and Americana with the Memphis spirit.
