Snappy strumming infused with serendipitous squeeze boxing, singer/songwriter Andra Suchy and accordionist Tim Belden dropped by for a jam in Studio 5 last Wednesday. The duo laid out some milky-smooth roots tunes, with heavenly melody and sublime instrumental grace. Raised on a beef and wheat farm by her musical parents, Suchy has kept the cozy aesthetic alive by expressing her optimistic and romantic nostalgia via zephyr-esque tales of rural beauty, simple living, and life in bloom. Having moved to the Twin Cities from North Dakota in 1996, with a guitar on her back and a sanguine glint in her eye, she has since established herself as a prominent Americana artist.
No stranger to stardom, Suchy has shared performances with the likes of Emmylou Harris, Brad Paisley, and Mindy Smith. She released her first full-length album, Patchwork Story, in 2006, and her follow up, Little Heart, through Red House Records in 2012.
