Poised. Confident. She has the looks and the voice. It would be wise to catch her now before she becomes a major cabaret presence. See her. Support her. She has the potential to become a major force in cabaret and musical theater...I can’t wait to see what develops with Suzanne Carrico... With her beauty and a voice that could charm a snake she has to come out on top. - OSCAR MOORE, TALK ENTERTAINMENT (January, 2009) "Suzanne Carrico... definitely has pipes to wake Rip Van Winkle from a sound slumber — especially when she tears into final notes on big numbers." - DAVID FINKLE, BACKSTAGE (July 2007) "I predict, in not too long a time, she could be winning awards as a major contender in the cabaret arena. Certainly she appears to be heading in the right direction." - JAN WALLMAN, CABARET EXCHANGE (August 2007) "Carrico is a promising performer with a pleasing voice and an engaging manner." - PETER LEAVY, CABARET SCENES (September, 2007) "Ms. Carrico colors what is essentially a legit sound by judiciously straightening her tone and utilizing a sexy mix; musically, her performance was admirable, and refreshingly appropriate to her material. A tall, slender, very attractive blonde in an elegant strapless dress, she displayed a poise and a seriousness of purpose." - JENNIE LITT, CABARET EXCHANGE (January 2008) "You simply must head downtown to catch singer Suzanne Carrico in her dazzling performance of her new show ART OF THE CAHN: Music from the Sammy Cahn Songbook. With Tedd Firth on piano and Steve Doyle on bass, the show is one of the best I've seen so far this year - the performance was perfection and Ms. Carrico's vocals are unbelievable. Direction by Mary Cleere Haran must be given some of the credit, since the show is perfectly crafted and executed." - STU HAMSTRA, CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE (July 2007)
