Her talents led to her win Fox23’s “Maine Idol” competition and become Miss Maine in 2009. She has been featured in Portland Symphony Orchestra’s Magic of Christmas series, in addition to countless other performances. This show will likely sell out fast!
Susie Pepper has been performing professionally for the past 15 years. Beginning in church choirs and community theater, Susie continued her music experience as lead singer for the Point Sebago Resort house band, To The Point. In 2009, Susie won the title of Miss Maine and traveled to Las Vegas, NV to compete in the Miss America Scholarship Pageant. Both pageants awarded her Vocal Talent awards. She has enjoyed working with many local artists and considers her time spent performing with The Portland Symphony Orchestra and the Jackson, TN Orchestra a highlight in her musical career. Susie also performs around Maine with the Classic Rock Orchestra, singing the songs of Heart, Journey, Pat Benetar, Stevie Nicks, Queen, and more! When not playing rockstar with the Classic Rock Orchestra, you can find her prepping for the many weddings and shows she has with her stellar band, Mixology, or recording her podcast, Diaries of a Wedding Singer, with her twin sisters, Ali. Make sure to catch them both on season 3 of I Can See Your Voice on Fox! Although she grew up in Maine and LOVES performing here at Deertrees, she now lives in North Carolina with her stud of a husband, Charlie, and four wild kids, Jack, Elena, Lily, and Rose. Keep up to date with her band on Facebook and Instagram! Follow and listen to her podcast anywhere you listen! @diariesofaweddingsinger @susiestaubs @mixologyband You can listen to The Susie Pepper Quartet on Spotify Ali Butler has been singing since she was a kid around the campfire but most recently fronted the band, The North Coast Orchestra in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for seven years. She has been singing professionally for a decade throughout the country and is eager to begin the next chapter as a new resident of North Carolina! She keeps busy with her three girls and podcast called “Diaries of a Wedding Singer” alongside her twin, Susie. Recording a podcast with your twin sister is a treat, but singing beside her is really something special and doesn’t get to happen too often. She is so excited to not only be back in her home state but also thrilled to be at Deertrees for the first time! A shoutout to her awesome hubby who is hanging back with the kids while Mom gets to have a little fun with all of you! And make sure to catch both Ali and Susie on season 3 of “I Can See Your Voice” on Fox!
