2. A German singer-songwriter (2006 to present)

“Also one half of elegant folk rock duo Early Autumn Break, Düsseldorf’s Susan Bauszat, alias Tropes, is a literal solo project in which she alone fashions her introspective universe.

Influenced by such diverse forebears as differently jazzy chanteuses London and Billie Holiday, along with impressionistic classical composers like Debussy and

Fauré, Bauszat combines her own, deeply personal lyrics with extracts of poetry by Emily Dickinson.

Other Tropes touchstones include Dead Can Dance, The Cocteau Twins, This Mortal Coil and even Piano Magic at their most dreamlike.

Susan’s PersonalDNA test states she is an advocating inventor, to which any who knows her or who has listened to her music would most probably agree.

Tropes is an outlet for music of poignant, weightless delicacy and a most intimate songwriting vision.”

David Sheppard

Tropes will release her first self-titled EP late 2006.

3. An American vocalist and producer from California.
