Throughout her career Bogguss has shown a knack for blending songs of substance and depth with mass-market appeal. Songs like “Aces,” “Drive South,” “Someday Soon,” “Outbound Plane” and "Letting Go" took her to the top of the country music charts. Along the way she won raves from critics and her peers. She won the Country Music Association’s Horizon Award in 1992 and album of the Year Award in 1994.


Sweet Danger
, her latest CD, is a natural evolution from the widely praised album, Swing, which she recorded in 2003 with Ray Benson of Asleep At The Wheel, and Simpatico, her earlier much loved collaboration with Chet Atkins. Still, as the title of the new album implies, she had to risk following her muse into uncharted musical territory in order to find these newest treasures. She co-produced the album with famed jazz/pop keyboardist and producer
Jason Miles, who’s worked with Miles Davis, Luther Vandross and Sting.
The two brought together Nashville and New York musicians, culling the
best of both worlds to create an instantly engaging, groove-oriented
record infused with jazz rhythms and Bogguss’ signature vocals. Sweet Danger, like all of her previous work, is filled with
songs full of emotional integrity. She covers Chicago’s “If You Leave
Me Now” and creates a totally new vibe by stripping the song down to
its emotional core and rebuilding it with a tight acoustic ensemble.
“No Good Way To Go” is a tongue-in-cheek lesson in “the break up”
delivered in a bluesy, whispered rap. She turns to husband/songwriter
Doug Crider for “In Heaven,” the emotional centerpiece of the album
written about some of the couple’s best friends.

With great risk comes great reward, and discerning music lovers are the real winners here. Suzy Bogguss dares to take the road less traveled and that has made all the difference.
