about
Susan has been singing, playing guitar and composing original songs since her teens. After completing her University Degree in Economics, and a short stint working in Canberra, she returned to Melbourne to follow her first love; playing and making music. MCA records quickly saw her potential after Susan won a major song-writing competition and signed her for a three-track EP that received national airplay and went top 30 in the Country music charts. A video was produced of the lead song, "Money Only Takes You So Far", which still receives occasional airplay on the Foxtel network and ABC-TV. With the Success of this debut, MCA wanted Susan to produce more country songs similar to the single. However, Susan's musical influences and personal style had moved on and she parted ways with the label before an album could be recorded. While looking for a new deal, Susan produced a self-financed and promoted, five-track EP titled " Money, Love & Destiny" that failed to get any distribution despite some good reviews and airplay. Undaunted, Susan commenced work on her debut Album under the name The Seventh Dawn. She was now exploring her love of folk and medieval music producing ten songs that can only be described as neo-folk. The album was titled "The Age To An End Shall Come...", and was recorded with the assistance of her brother Chris McCarter and his Gothic Rock band Ikon. Ikon already had an album released and a strong live following in Melbourne and in Germany. Susan's album
