Bio / Background
Susan Owens was born in New Orleans & raised in Baton Rouge La. She began playing the guitar at the age of 13 during the summer before the 8th grade in the year 1969. Playing at first in solitude by way of the LSU parade ground she gradually began venturing to venues near the campus in Baton Rouge. Through doing Open Mic nights and running a Wed night jam she formed her first band Live Bait (swing, country & originals) which had the honor of appearing weekly at the legendary Ben & Nita’s on the Amite River at Port Vincent La. (known for having a stage made from half of an old boat deck & hull)Under various names Susan has worked the Baton Rouge area for most of the last 25 years. She participated in 10 of 12 years of the “Baton Rouge Fest-for-All” (a hugely successful yearly event) Local bands she played with were: “Borrowed Time”, Ghost Hotel, The “Luvrakers” (with her late husband Alva Snelling,)The “Frenge” (fringe) & Susan’s Time Warp among others.
↓ more ↓Around 1989 Susan essentially quit playing music & went back to school. After her husbands untimely death in 1995 she began once again to seriously approach her music career. Starting off solo again she worked to make her way back into the Baton Rouge music scene. In May of 2003 she began a year long stint hosting a Tues night open mic/music jam at Phil Brady’s Bar & Grille. Around the same time she joined the existing band “Raising Cane” & enjoyed once again playing summertime jobs on the Amite River. Through the Tuesday jams she formed “Gypsy Swing”, competing in the Baton Rouge Blues Challenge Susan went in to Main St. Studio in December of 2003 to record “Tanging the Hump” which came out in November 2004. (It is available for sale at area music stores & wherever she is playing as well as through CD Baby.) At that time Susan decided to change the name back to “Filigree” since she had come full circle: back to the music she originally learned to love while growing up with a mother who loved all the old jazz. Starting in July of 2004 Susan Owens & Filigree began a two and a half year stint playing every Tuesday night at the Baton Rouge night club Slippery Pete’s. (Florida @ Stevendale) After the tragic death of one of the owners Susan has begun a once monthly Jam Session there(usually the last Wed of each month)and now has varying week and weekend dates at Pete's as well. You can also look for her at Phil Brady’s in Baton Rouge, T & T Lounge in Zachary La. and Cypress Grille (every Sunday) in Saint Francisville, as well as other regional venues. Now recording a 2nd album "Hang the Moon" and performing Classic Rock & Modern Blues, as well as Old Swing, Filigree is truly a Louisiana Hybrid band.
