Susie Suh is the debut album by American singer-songwriter Susie Suh. It was released on Epic Records in 2005. The CD is marked with the Copy Control logo.

Critical reception[edit]

Alex Henderson of AllMusic concludes his review with, "The singer/songwriter field is amazingly crowded these days, but Suh is a cut above many of the female singer/songwriters who emerged in the early and mid-2000s and shows considerable promise on her first album."[1]

Liane Hansen of NPR writes, "Suh's lyrics are introspective. And though she shares a homonym with wailer Siouxsie Sioux of Banshees fame, her music is on the softer side."[2]
