Venus Guytrap Susanna Wolfe
Susanna, from a very early age, started her musical career training as a classical vocalist. Her childhood influences were Irish folk songs and Opera. However, as she became older, she discovered Rock Music, which was to become her first love.
Moving into her teenage years, she started writing and performing her own songs. Her thirst for adventure led her to sing and write in many genres, working with an extensive variety of artists. The influences of Blues, New Wave and Traditional music, make their way into the songs She has written.
She spent ten years in Birmingham, before moving to the Highlands of Scotland.
Birmingham was where Susanna sharpened her talent for providing Vocal Training and Backing Vocals for live work as well as recording.
Moving to Scotland gave Susanna the opportunity to concentrate on her own material and develop her Solo career.
As well as being a Singer/Songwriter and performer in her own right, Susanna has also worked as a session Vocalist, for Martin Stephenson on many of the Albums he has produced, both for himself and other Artists.
Her latest Album, “Mantras for Modern Times” was released 2022 via Bandcamp.
The Album epitomises the diversity of musical genres that Susanna has embraced over the years.
Produced by Martin Stephenson and featuring a wealth of relatable songs, “Mantras for Modern Times” takes you on a journey of emotional experiences

James has had a guitar in his hands since he was 2 years old. He just absolutely loves music. He started busking at 8 years old and, at 13, was lucky enough to get to play a song on stage at the pavilion in Strathpeffer alongside Callum Beattie. Callum and his manager then decided to sign James up and become his manager. Since then, James hasn’t stopped gigging
He has aleady performed at several of our events, such as the Beauly Buzz and The Mutiny On The Beauly.
