"I first caught on to the sounds of Susan Robkin when she lived in Nashville. It seems a move to Seattle has improved on an already multi-talented singer/songwriter.The voice of Susan Robkin is one that can not be contained in a single singing style. For that reason, every song on her new album, how to say goodbye, is like ear candy. Each song sucks you in and spits you out only to be drawn in again and again by each subsequent track. The first time I listened to the CD, I was actually drawn to tears by some of the lyrics, so well chosen that it seems she must truly know the subject matter of the broken hearted and love-starved. "how to say goodby," "you won't change" and "sunflower" are my three favorite songs, but I frequently find myself humming the tune of "carry me" as I go about my day. I also enjoy the second, more jazzy version of "fall from grace."This album runs the gammut of musical styles. From pop to funk and jazz to accoustal rhyrthms, the musical guitar strains of Jess and Joshua Gaedtke take the whole project to a higher level - working in tandem with Susan's voice to deliver a CD that will continually live on in rotation of my preferred top six selection in my CD stereo magazine.Take a chance on an up-and-coming star from Seattle. You won't be sorry."

New and cool - very worth the buy
