Chicago-based singer-songwriter Sue Fink has been enchanting audiences since 2001 with her whimsical perspective on the world. She is a witty social commentator and perceptive observer of the human condition. Her genre is folk with a hint of jazz, a large dollop of humor, and a drop of sadness for good measure: think Christine Lavin, with a dash of Rickie Lee Jones, Melanie, and Nellie McKay. In a term coined by CatBird band-mate Jane Godfrey, she calls her style “urban campfire cabaret.”
Sue’s original songs have received national and local airplay on numerous folk shows, including “The Midnight Special” (Rich Warren, WFMT) and “Folk Festival” (Lilli Kuzma, WDCB). She performs mostly in the Midwest (IL, IN, MI, MO, WI), and has toured both coasts.
Sue performs in various configurations:
- Solo (or with accompanying musicians)
- CatBird (duo, with Jane Godfrey)
- SongSisters (trio, with Amy Dixon-Kolar and Patti Shaffner)

***NOTE: Believe it or not, there are TWO Sue Fink singer/songwriters! I'm the one in Chicago. If I neither sound nor look like the Sue Fink you know... I'm probably not her! :-)
