Susie Suh channels the divine feminine in her latest single and video Invisible Love — showcasing today on Tinnitist.
The ethereal and uplifting title track of her latest album (out on vinyl May 27), Invisible Love is an anthem of self-love and empowerment — “a song about the divine nature within all of us,” Suh says. “Love permeates throughout even though you might not see it. We are all sacred and we are all beautiful.”
Depicting different versions of the divine feminine in a journey of self-empowerment, Invisible Love’s video, like its predecessors, features a lone female character who travels the globe, displaying the beauty and power of the natural world. “I wanted to take people with me to these sacred and majestic sites around the world to show them the beauty of Mother Nature and also connect them to the energy there.”
With over 125 million streams, Susie has quietly and organically grown her audience and reach. After being signed to Sony Epic Records for her self-titled debut album, Susie created her own label Collective Records. Susie’s instinct to produce and own all of her own music and content, with total control of all her creative choices, has allowed for a pure transmission of her artistry. The single Here With Me became an internet phenomenon after being featured on the first season of The Blacklist. And virtually every song on her second album The Bakman Tapes was licensed to film and television shows such as Parenthood, Awkward, Containment, and more. In 2021 alone she was added to more than 130,000 playlists with no touring, marketing, or corporate machine” behind her.
Searching for answers outside the modern world, Suh looks within. A traveler and a seeker, her quest for self-knowledge and spiritual truths has whisked her away to sacred and holy places around the world, including Lourdes, France, Glastonbury, U.K., and areas within the U.S. such as Sedona, Mt. Shasta, and Ojai. She lived with the Buddhist monks in Thich Nat Hanh’s Plum Village, France where the daily practices of meditation and mindfulness helped her find grounding outside of the modern world. Susie also studied meditation and alternative modes of healing like sound therapy. And she communed in nature, studying the energetic expression of plants and herbalism.
These epiphanic experiences lifted her spiritually and emotionally and resulted in Susie’s third album Invisible Love. Connecting through a sonic haze with music that can be described as refreshingly honest, introspective, and vulnerable, the album mines wells of unseen emotion, grasping for raw feelings in between the echoes of warm keys, plaintive acoustic guitar, and the delicately transformative power of crystal bowls. “This album chronicles an inner journey that I’ve been on — a pilgrimage of sorts — to find healing from within,” Susie shares. “Music is a powerful tool, and songs can help one get in touch with their own emotions and truth. I wanted to incorporate into my music some more alternative and intentional elements that have helped me on my journey.”
During her travels, Suh developed an interest in healing practices that incorporate sound, including the gorgeously essentialized melodies of the crystal bowl. “Sound therapy works through entrainment,” Susie explains. “When you hear certain sounds, your body will entrain itself to the frequencies around it. Those frequencies can help lower blood pressure, help with stress and anxiety, and calm the nervous system.”
Invisible Love represents a personal and artistic rebirth for Susie. “Invisible Love feels like a debut for me,” she says. “I’m welcoming everyone to get to know different sides of me like never before. I wanted to create a piece of work that, not only helps to uplift the human spirit, but also helps us remember who we truly are.”
Suh will also host a special one-night event in Los Angeles at St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral on May 17, featuring a musical performance and immersive wellness experience. The Invisible Love Experience will include a musical performance with a classical string trio, a sound healing ceremony, and essential oil therapy, while lying or sitting on yoga mats. This will be followed by a meet-and-greet and refreshments. For more information and to purchase tickets go HERE.
