Alternative country and folk artist Natalie Sue tends to fall in love, swim in Lake Michigan, and sing real hard. Spirit, sex, life and death start to make sense when she channels it into song. Playin’ on the same guitar she’s had since she was 10, her unique voice carries stories of passion, grief, and play. Singer and songwriter for Milwaukee and Riverwest-based band, Natalie Sue and The Steed, you can hear her latest E.P. “Patchouli and Tobacco” everywhere.
