"Her fiery version of 'Whipping Post' is burn-the-stage-down hot."
- ROOTS MUSIC REPORT
"Her delivery (is) as sure and true as an arrow on 'Hell Still Ain't Frozen Over.' The throaty breaks in her performance are perfect for the heartache in this finely-crafted power ballad."
- Robert K. Oermann / MUSIC ROW MAGAZINE
Nashville, TN (May 18, 2010) -- Texan Susan Hickman brings her own brand of country/rock to her Music City debut at Cadillac Ranch (305 Broadway Street) on Friday, June 11, from 5:45 - 6:20 p.m. Hickman's powerful vocals have drawn positive reviews and strong spins for this indy artist.
