About Suzuki

Based in Sebastopol, CA, Suzuki Cady brings a dynamic mix of acoustic Irish folk and popular music to audiences in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Suzuki sings and plays the fiddle, mandolin, banjo, and bodhrán. She also teaches Irish music and composes original tunes.
Suzuki performs solo or with musical partners in duos or larger groups. She plays in the versatile “Hardly-Strictly-Irish” duo Jimmy Murphy + Suzuki Cady, a trio with Amelia Hogan, and Irish band New Wild Hog.
With an abiding love of traditional Irish music, Suzuki cut her teeth playing at pubs and private sessions throughout the Bay Area and in Ireland. Her fondness for the art form led to pursuits and outlets as far away as Galway, Ennis, Dublin, and Paris.
Suzuki has performed at restaurants, wineries, concert venues, weddings, funerals, house concerts, bedside for hospice patients, the Fairfax Festival, the O’Neill Irish Music Festival, the Fairfax Irish Music Festival, Bread and Roses concerts, and much more.
Suzuki began her singing career at age seven as a professional Colorado Children’s Chorale member. At age twelve, she was invited to tour mainland China with the Colorado Children’s Chorale Tour Choir.
Suzuki enjoys singing and playing a variety of folk styles, including Sean-nós (“old style”) Irish songs. Her sense of rhythm has been honed by a lifetime of dance training: an extensive background in Flamenco, Afro-Brazilian, West African, Congolese, and Rollerskate Dancing. She is currently studying Irish Sean-nós percussive dance.
Suzuki also designs custom websites, logos, and brand marketing, and is a professional photographer.

“Music is one of my primary outlets for artistic expression, mood alteration, and life affirmation. Using the universal language of music, I aim to create beauty and space for deep human connection that lifts the collective spirit and delights the ear.”
