Dallas Independent Artist Goes Global

DALLAS,TX-- Have you ever heard of Novi Sad or Monte Negro? Well, Susan from Soultree had not heard of these countries either when she received news that her Dallas-based independent release is in rotation on IN-Radio, as well as Lord Litters radio show in Germany among others around the world.

With the US music industry reeling from music pirates and online downloads, this Dallas artist decided to go to the global market for their music. Why should I wait for some corporate big-wig to dress me up like a cupie doll in order to sell my music?" Susan from Soultree touts, Besides, Ive been dressing myself for years." This Texas rising star is fed up with the barriers in the current music marketplace. Shes decided to take matters into her own hands. Susan is her own marketing team, promotions director, record label and artist all rolled into one...a real renaissance man...I mean woman. With this marketing strategy, Soultree has successfully landed a regional Mercedes commercial, and radio airplay among many other spotlights in the media.    

Susan is the singer, guitarist and songwriter of the dynamic trio Soultree. Its hard to get into the boys club in Dallas", she says while picking her guitar, ... and overcoming the female singer/songwriter shtick is depressing. People over seas are much more responsive to independent music. I guess thats why Im pushing that direction...it works!"

Well, what Susan is doing for Soultree is also working in the US. Local Granbury KPIR Radio DJ Shayne Hollinger says, All I can say is WOW...what a provocative voice...and amazing sound". Shayne Hollinger hosts the Lone Star Saturday Nights Texas songwriter show and has Soultrees song Addiction" in regular rotation along with Willie Nelson and Lucinda Williams. A Tonos.com A&R review states, The vocals in this song are mesmerizing...and the song itself has a sultry...or Soultree sophistication."

Soultree is Texas newest shooting star in this rollercoaster of a music industry. They are independent and proud of it. Taking the cue from artists like Ani DiFranco and Aimee Mann, this trio is on the road to a long-term successful career making music.
