Suzanne Vega has been known for writing smart, literate songs since her eponymous debut in 1985. On her latest release, Beauty & Crime, the Manhattan native uses New York City as the backdrop for a collection of eleven new songs that juxtapose acoustic guitar-driven melodies with coolly synthesized beats; intensely personal lyrics with compelling, short story-like narratives; images of today's scarred cityscape with memories of Vega's old Upper West Side hood and Lower East Side haunts. Vega says, "I feel like I really stretched my limits. I pushed myself out of my comfort zoneto sing in keys I wouldn't have sung in before, to work with different textures, to be unafraid of doing what ever sounded good to me. I wanted to make a modern classic."

Also Performing: Richard Julian
