'Suzanne Pittson is a gusty, informed scatter...she knows her chord changes. The singer is one to watch for."
Zan Stewart-Down Beat

"Suzanne Pittson is a true jazz singer...her scat work is breathtaking."
Jerome Wilson - Cadence

Suzanne Pittson lives in New York and is Assistant Professor of Jazz Vocal Studies at The City College of New York.  Called a "true jazz singer" by  Cadence magazine and a "true musician" by JazzTimes, she is rapidly gaining the respect of the jazz world because of her scatting and technical accuracy, her creativity and musicianship, and her broad improvisational vocabulary.  All About Jazz  says "Pittson is like an additional horn in the ensemble. Her 'scatting' drives the rhythm section and they respond to her urgings." 

Suzanne's most recent CD, "Resolution: A Remembrance of John Coltrane"  features unique vocal interpretations of the music of John Coltrane—including 2 movements of "A Love Supreme"—and is mentioned in Ashley Kahn's 2002 book A Love Supreme: The Story of John Coltrane's Signature Album (Viking). Her bold and adventurous improvisations, based on study of John Coltrane and the post-Coltrane saxophonists, push the development of the jazz singing language into new realms of expression.
