    CAMDEN – Fresh off her UK tour with Jerry Douglas for the Transatlantic Sessions and dates with guitar legend Tommy Emmanuel, platinum-selling country songstress Suzy Bogguss is set to return to perform at the Camden Opera House Sat. April 21 at 7:30 p.m. Audiences can expect an intimate night of music backed by her new trio – some of Nashville's finest players.

    The show will include Suzy's memorable radio hits such as "Outbound Plane," "Drive South," "Hey Cinderella," and "Aces," as well as songs from her latest albums Lucky, celebrating the songwriting of Merle Haggard, and American Folk Songbook. Fans can look forward to hearing new material as well – with Suzy debuting originals for the first time since her top 5 jazz album Sweet Danger.

    Bogguss last performed in Camden in September 2015 for the annual Windjammer Festival. In addition to Camden she will make a stop in Brownfield to perform at the Stone Mountain Arts Center on April 20.

    "I can't wait to play in Camden,” she said, in a news release. “I just love performing in Maine. I was there a couple years ago and am so excited to get back. Some of my favorite audiences!"

    What's on the horizon? Bogguss is currently writing and preparing for her next album as well as continuing to play with her trio and Chicks with Hits – a new tour with fellow queens of country Pam Tillis and Terri Clark.

    Tickets for the Camden Opera House are on sale now with a variety of seating options available between $32-$36.

    "My show is very spontaneous. Each one is unique. The guys in my band say that my set list is just a suggestion," she laughs. "It's very fluid. If I feel like the audience wants to hear a particular song or if there's a request I am happy to shift gears. I'm just loving these intimate rooms and interacting with the crowd."
