Much of the best musical talent in Chicago - gospel capital
of the world - stands in the ranks of The Sue Conway Victory Singers.
Formed in 1988, the group quickly made its name in the United States
and Europe. In Europe the group has performed more than 200 concerts.
In March of 1999 The Sue Conway Victory Singers became the first gospel
group, ever, to perform at the world renowned LA SCALA Theater in Milan!
Sue Conway, founder and artistic director of the group is considered
the Grande Dame of Chicago music and sings everything from gospel to
rock. Her rich and powerful alto voice has allowed her to perform extensively
in theaters, churches, clubs, musicals and recording studios where she
has worked with some of the greatest performers of our time, including
Roberta Flack, Stevie Wonder, Patty LaBelle, Natalie Cole, Jerry "Ice
Man" Butler, and Donny Hathaway. She has won the prestigious "Joseph
Jefferson Award" for her interpretation of Bessie Smith and has
performed on numerous radio and television programs in Europe and the
United States. The Chicago Tribune’s, Sid Smith reviewed her performance
- "A terrific singer, with a smoking low register and a piercing
high one, Conway is delightful. ….. whenever Conway sings there’s
magic."
