Singing for world statesmen, singing in French, performing in
South Africa, Russia, Switzerland, the United States, England,
or, in her own beloved Emerald Isle of Ireland, remains a way of
life for Newry’s very own Susan McCann after over 30 years as an
international star.
In the US, Susan has appeared at the prestigious Florida
Strawberry Festival on 6 occasions. This festival attracts in
the region of one million people over the eleven day period.
Susan had the pleasure of singing first for President George
Bush (Snr) and General Normal Schwarzkopf and in more recent
times the current US President George W Bush came to her show
and met her afterwards at the Florida festival. She has appeared
in concert at New York’s Carnegie Hall and made numerous guest
appearances on American television, both network and regional.
To celebrate her 30th anniversary, Susan released her first 4
albums (originally released on vinyl 1977 – 79), on a freshly
digitalised and re-mastered double CD called “The Blayney
Years”.
