THE SUSAN CATTANEO BAND - ALL THE WOMEN I LOVE

Award-winning singer/songwriter Susan Cattaneo makes a triumphant return to The Fallout Shelter to kick off our Fall Fundraiser with a celebration of the female artists who influenced generations of other women to take center stage. Classic songs from the legendary songbooks of Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, and Emmylou Harris and more. With an all-star band featuring some of Boston’s most beloved musicians: Peter Moore on keys, Andy Santospago on guitar, Joe McMahon on bass and Marco Giovino on drums. 

“Sensational is barely the word to cover Susan Cattaneo’s show at the Regent Theatre last night. She called it a tribute to “All the Women I Love,” most notably Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt and Emmylou Harris. It was a labor of love — and an absolutely captivating trip through some of the most important song books of our times. Susan had the voice to invest nearly every tune with just the right color and spirit, while also touching upon classics by Carly Simon, Carole King, Joni Mitchell and Christine McVie. She was funny when need be, serious as well, and her Boston-based band was impeccable. This show is so good that it could tour theaters nationally, and I can hardly wait for Cattaneo to do it again.”

Her 2016 album The Hammer and The Heart, a double album featuring collaborations with 41 musicians, charted #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and yielded a folk radio #1 single and top 10 album.

She is a five time nominee at the Boston Music Awards, including Americana Artist of the Year, Songwriter of the Year as a solo artist and Best Folk Album of the Year as a member of the duo Honest Mechanik.
