Known for her engaging and energetic live performances, Susan Werner remains one of the most bold and creative forces on today’s acoustic music scene. Dubbed “The Empress of the Unexpected” by NPR, her genre-spanning albums include folk, rock, pop, gospel, blues and Ameriana.
A clever songwriter, Werner composes skillful songs that effortlessly slide between folk, jazz, and pop, delivered with sassy wit and classic Midwestern charm. Throughout her expansive career, Werner’s boundless versatility has defined her talent and musical identity.
“Always an impressive songwriter, Werner continues to compose sharp, funny, compassionate lyrics, a gift rare enough to set her apart.” - The Washington Post
This event has been funded by the Frederica G. Esbenshade Memorial Fund, which provides annual income for the purpose of bringing lectures, performing artists, and programs of diverse nature to the campus and community at large. The endowed fund was established in 1980 by Harry H Esbenshade Sr., and Harry H. Esbenshade Jr., husband and son, respectively, of the late Mrs. Esbenshade of Uniontown, Pennsylvania. All events are free and open to the public.
