Trial and Error
the second full-length release from multi-faceted Indie Soul Singer SuCh(who followers of GFM may know from her single “Sugar Maple” that garnered a lot buzz this year) finds this artist making a very personal statement about the journey we experience as life. The set begins with the openly optimistic and aptly titled “Open Book” which is equal parts attention and celebration surrounding the declarative of who this artist is(this particular tune also gives a subtle nod to the sound of a Becker/Fagen arrangement in the setup to the verses).

Trial and Error
contains a variety of musical looks as it were, from Pop to several different colors of Soul. But for my ears where this set really shines is on a ballad full of drama that is reminiscent of the work of Oleta Adams and that is the composition “Where You Left Me”. Knowing what I know about the work of SuCh on stage in productions like The Color Purple it makes it easy to see why “Where You Left Me” sounds and feels effortless.

Trial and Error from SuCh out now and already #68 on the iTunes R&B/Soul Charts. Give a listen, give your support today!
