As the featured vocalist on hit tracks by Grammy award winner Peter Rauhofer's Club 69 ("Much Better," "Alright," "Muscles"), the Absolute's UK gold record "I Believe," her irresistible 2001 club anthem "Hide U," her 2002 club smash "Show Me," the UK breakout trance/house collaboration with DJ Tiesto, "643/Love's On Fire," her recent club classic, "Luv 2 Luv," and her newest releases, "Home," "Sound Of The Drum," "Fascinated," and "Free My Love," Suzanne Palmer has stunned crowds internationally with her spirited, gospel-inflected performances.

Equally at home singing r&b, gospel, house, pop and jazz, Palmer boasts impeccable credentials. The daughter of a jazz pianist, she grew up on Chicago's south side. By age sixteen she was performing professionally. She has appeared on albums with Angela Bofill, Jeff Lorber and Terry Callier. Earth, Wind and Fire's Maurice White signed her to a solo recording project. Palmer toured Europe with the Victory Singers, a renowned Chicago gospel choir, and tore down the house on New York's nationally televised "Show Time at the Apollo." In Poland, at the prestigious Sopot International Pop Festival, she competed against singers from sixteen countries to win the Best Solo Vocalist award. She appeared on "The Oprah Winfrey Show," singing with Gloria Estefan on her 1996 Olympic Games anthem, "Reach." The February 1998 issue of Jazziz magazine declared Palmer a winner in its talent search for "Voices of the New Jazz Culture."

In the summer of 1997, after signing to the Twisted America/MCA label, she began her fruitful artistic partnership with producer/DJ Peter Rauhofer, as a featured vocalist on the Club 69 album, "Style." The album yielded three hit singles for Suzanne, "Much Better," "Alright," and "Muscles," and firmly established her as a major star in the club music scene.

In 1998 Suzanne began writing and recording at the Vienna studio of production team Beat 4 Feet. The resulting tracks reflected a stylistic diversity and emotional range rarely found - let alone handled with such confidence - by an artist. Rousing dance floor numbers such as the inspirational house anthem "Stand Up!" and the classic, disco-drenched "It's My Life" and "The Rhythm Goes On," offset smoldering ballads like "So Much For Promises" and "If I Had To Do It All Again," the Chaka Khan-esque "Good Good Lovin'," the techno-soul grooves of "Eyes Of A Broken Child" and "Lonely Is The Night," the sultry mid-tempo jams like "Love Will Be The Key," and "One For Me." Unfortunately, the Twisted label was forced to close its doors before the album could be released.

In 2001 Suzanne reunited with producer/DJ Peter Rauhofer to record "Hide U" for Peter's own Star 69 label. It began topping the DJ playlists as soon as promo copies went out, and rapidly broke into the Billboard Club Play chart's top 5. 2002 saw the release of her Rauhofer-produced house hit, "Show Me," as well as her collaboration with master trance DJ Tiesto, the European breakout smash, "643/Love's On Fire."

On June 21, 2005 Suzanne celebrated the release of her first full length cd for Star 69, entitled "Home." Executive producer Rauhofer teamed her up with some of the most creative and cutting edge producers, writers, and remixers around, including Anthony Acid, Peter Bailey, Beat Hustlerz, Blue Room, Dezrok, Cevin Fisher, Fred Jorio, Eric Kupper, Angel Moraes, David Morales and Orange Factory.

Most recently, Suzanne has embarked upon a new project with DJ/producer Bill Bennett, resulting in the release of their remake of the classic, "Fame," along with Suzanne's very first music video.

With her potent blend of musical styles winning converts in all genres, fans from San Francisco to London to Rio to Sydney agree that Suzanne Palmer is a talent to be reckoned with!

WHAT THE PRESS HAS TO SAY:

BILLBOARD
Suzanne Palmer is no stranger to clubland. In 1998, as a featured singer for Club 69, she scored her first (and only) No. 1 Hot Dance Club Play hit with “Much Better.” Since embarking on a solo career, Palmer’s singles “Hide U,” “Show Me,” and “Luv 2 Luv” have all made their way into the top five of the Billboard chart. “Home” will not have any difficulty repeating the process. In fact, with its savvy songwriting and taut production (courtesy of Jody Den Broeder and Ellis Miah), the progressive house-styled yet radio-friendly “Home” could become the singer’s first Club Play chart-topper as a one-woman act.

"(Suzanne Palmer) was downright yummy...(She) wrecked the room by unleashing a Chaka Khan-like wail from her tiny blond frame. To say she has star power would not properly capture what she infused into (Club 69's) 'Twisted.' Listen to the jam yourself and then search her out in a live setting."

"(At Billboard's 1998 Dance Music Summit) Suzanne Palmer, the acclaimed belter behind Club 69's 'Alright' and 'Much Better,' showed that she's far more than a studio screamer when she previewed softer, more lyrically challenging material from her upcoming solo Twisted America project. This gal's got charisma to go with her voice."

THE VILLAGE VOICE
"(One of) the most influential vocalists in the garage universe:...Suzanne Palmer."

PERFECTBEAT.COM
More than any other genre, among the most exciting aspects of dance music is that it is constantly reinventing itself. Moving as fast as technology allows, die-hard listeners are treated several times a year to singles that change its direction and redefine "the sound." "Show Me," Suzanne Palmer's long-awaited follow-up to her circuit smash, "Hide U," is, in fact, one of these great singles... despite the fact that it took us a little getting used to at first. It was simply a matter of having to learn to digest all its ingredients. 80's retro, tribal house, sci-fi camp and a pinch of witty sarcasm all come together on remixes from Phil Pagan and James Anderson, but most adorably on the saucy original version via Peter Rauhofer. "Show Me" is definitely among the highlights of the summer, and perhaps even the year. Palmer, if you please.

CYBER-CLUBBER.COM MUSIC REVIEWS
"('Flight 643') is back,...this time with the lovely hostess Suzanne Palmer...Forget blowing the roof of dancefloors. This time around they intend to bring the tents down at Creamfields, Gatecrasher, Summer Sound System and every other festival this summer, basically causing mass destruction on a scale never seen before...If any of (Tiesto's) productions has a chance (at the UK Top 40), it's this one.

TRANCE.NU
It's common knowledge now, the successful...tough trance workout..."Flight 643" has been skilfully refurbished with strong vocals from talent, Suzanne Palmer. The diverse diva brings a high profile in the scene...and is famous for her voice in one of last year's hottest anthems, "Hide U." The Oliver Klein Vox Mix...is the dog's bollocks...generating a corking blend of German tech-trance, industrious stabs and the enchanting vocal. The Oliver Lieb Vocal Remix is destined for dance floor domination, with its paced up, techno-influenced arrangement.

DANCE-MUSIC-REVIEWS.COM
The Original version of ‘643 (Love’s On Fire)’ is a superb... hard trance cut that takes no prisoners and is of course non-vocal. The Love's On Fire part of the track previously known as 'Flight 643' refers to the new vocals by Suzanne Palmer which add an interesting touch as they aren't the usual floaty trance vocals and they work quite well. There's mixes by Oliver Lieb, Oliver Klein, Quivver and DJ Orkidea. What a track, Tiësto keeps delivering the goods!
A slamming ***** outta five.

STREETSOUND
"The two biggest delights (from the new Club 69 album, Style) come in the form of two covers - the Diana Ross classic 'Muscles' and Urban Soul's 'Alright.' On Style they get makeovers by the dynamic vocal power of Palmer, who gives Miss Ross a run for her money on the once disco, now house version of 'Muscles.' This track is likely to shoot to the top of the charts and ring as one of the best diva tracks of the year..."

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
"...a galvanizing performance...as Palmer transforms the peace ballad...'Imagine'...into a high-powered gospel workout."

CHICAGO READER
"Palmer remains among the city's most talented and enigmatic vocalists:...she certainly has the technique and daring to achieve either...jazz or pop stardom..."

NY GARAGE REPORT
"'There Will Come A Day' (Tribal America) is really quite wonderful. (Palmer's) storming gospelled-up vocal...could burn the seat off your pants at fifty yards."

VIBE
"...Palmer does more than merely prove that she's technically capable of holding her own in an R&B or pop environment. She reveals that rare, intangible X-factor that separates the stars from the mere singers."

HX
"The Roxy was packed...House diva Suzanne Palmer took the stage to sing her hits, including her soon-to-be classic "Hide U." She tore it up!"

JOE BERMUDEZ
"Suzanne's gospel-inflected performance (on "Hide U") gives you pure raw emotion from every note...a deep and minimal mix that lets her vocal move the dance floor."

DJ TIMES/DJ GROOVES
"With a hard-hitting intro, (and) Palmer's powerful vocals...Peter Rauhofer's got another club-ready hit. A top-notch production, ("Hide U" is)...an instant winner."

PERFECTBEAT.COM
"(“Luv 2 Luv” is)...a classic diva club anthem, a crown and title of which there haven’t really been that many worthy of wearing in recent memory...Highly recommended."

DJRICOMIX SHOW.COM
Luv 2 Luv
"Suzanne Palmer is back with a new chart-topper...Suzanne’s stunning vocals...keep a crowded dance floor packed...Suzanne lets her emotion ring through her voice in epic proportions...Miss Palmer has a sure-fire hit under her this time!"

No doubt that when the time comes at the end of the year for DJs to pick their top dance tracks of the year, Suzanne Palmer's "Luv 2 Luv" will be at the top of most lists...(It) is packed with six stellar remixes and helps to maintain Palmer as one of the top divas in dance music. With her new album, "Home" to be released in the next few months, I can hardly wait to hear what we are in store for.

"Sound of the Drum" Suzanne Palmer (Star 69)

Suzanne Palmer's...driving remake of the nearly 20-year-old house hit ''Fascinated"...(is)a standout track on Palmer's standout debut artist album, Home.

IN Los Angeles Magazine
"Home"

As the voice behind countless Peter Rauhofer/Club 69 floor filler singles in the late '90s, Chicago's Suzanne Palmer finally steps into the solo spotlight with her much-delayed debut collection. Home is a non-stop flogging of beloved circuit anthems, including the recent hit singles "Luv 2 Luv," "Sound Of The Drum," "Show Me," and the title track. Anything but a disposable voice and another pretty face, Palmer solidifies herself with the release of an album that proves she's more than a generic vocalist shoved behind the mic. What seems to set Palmer apart from the wailing diva pack is how much gospel and warm soul she packs into her performances, and that she has chops as a songwriter, too. Another highlight is her cover of the cheesy '80s club hit, "Fascinated" (by Company B). Palmer gives the track -- and its undeniably catchy chorus -- a breathy, understated sex appeal...As far as flat-out circuit collections go, Palmer more than keeps up with the pace and rhythm and adds some class and warmth to the all-night party.

Suzanne Palmer, where have you been all my life? Or more importantly, when are you coming to my living room to serenade me as the girls and I get ready for a night on the town. Packing one hell of a wallop to her soul tinged voice and catchy, instantly hummable dance tracks...Palmer's Home is created as a dance disc first and foremost...Palmer pulled out dance music's big guns to help craft this debut offering, and because the tunes are written to be played at hi-def on a packed and sweaty dance floor, that sense of urgency, passion and grit come pouring out of the speakers on every track...As inspired and captivating as the tracks are, it's Palmer's voice that is truly the discovery here. Vocally, she's almost unmatched by anyone on the radio today. Hats off to the girl - this is the sort of voice I want busting out of the speakers at Pride.

The highly anticipated Suzanne Palmer's debut album has finally been released...An entire album of full-on vocals with peak-time dance numbers conspicuously laid down the full track listing from renowned dance producers like Peter Rauhofer, Cevin Fisher, Eric Kupper, Angel Moraes and Peter Bailey. With that alone it's certainly a worthy pick-up than any other dance albums of recent.

Edge Boston                                                                      Home - Suzanne Palmer

Prior to "Home," Palmer earner her diva cred with a long string of hits...but "Home" established her as a bonafide album artist.  While she certainly possesses the pipes of a belter, she also understands restraint.  The material is up to par, which is refreshing, and it doesn't allow for filler or require over-singing.  Never mind renting, Palmer's "Home" is worth buying.

Suzanne Palmer - "Keep The Faith" Twistedhouse.com

"Another great track by Suzanne Palmer, and it proves that she's not only a great vocalist but a great writer too."

Suzanne Palmer/DJ Bill Bennett - "Fame" sweekmuzik.blogspot.com

"Some have said it was almost blasphemy to cover suck a classic.  The same has been said about many covers that turned out fine, and this one is no exception.  Ms. Palmer nails it.  Comparisons will definately be made between the original and this neew cover, but this cover is totally comparable."
