With three-quarters of its songs recorded live in studio, Suzanne Buirgy's sophomore CD, The View From Here, finally manages to capture the essence of Suzanne's unique live sound. The 11 songs on the record continue the musical journey Suzanne began on her first release, A Small Word. A songwriter's songwriter, she weaves stories that are moving and transformative. Songs like "The Good Shepard," and the much-anticipated "Lullaby," find Suzanne unwilling to shy away from the truth - but have no fear - with "Except For Me," "Experience," and "Got it Made," she proves that she also rocks.

The View From Here finds Suzanne and grammy-award winning songwriter Judy Wieder, a key contributor to A Small Word, once again sharing production as well as some songwriting credits. Judy also provides piano on the joyful, "Map of the World." Former Canned Heat member Ira Ingber serves as an additional coproducer and plays guitars on "Song In My Head," "Undertow," and "The Good Shepard." The record features the same core group of musicians as A Small Word: Randy Drake on drums, Dean Taba on bass, and the incredibly talented Ken Berry on guitars and mandolin. Rounding out the sound are Dan Fowler on percussion and Doug Harman on cello and piano. In addition, View features a very special accordion performance by the legendary Van Dyke Parks on "Undertow." With The View From Here, Suzanne raises the bar for performing songwriters and comes into her own.
