Suzy Bogguss at Cohoes Music Hall | May 28, 2026
Suzy Bogguss was inducted into the Grand Ole Opry on January 16, 2026. Four months later, she plays Cohoes Music Hall as part of Kevin Richards’ Country Concerts Closeup — a series built specifically around intimate performances that put you close to the music. That timing matters. You are not walking into a nostalgia show; you are catching one of country music’s defining voices at a moment of genuine recognition, in a format designed to deliver exactly that.
About Suzy Bogguss
If you came of age listening to country radio in the 1990s, you know the songs. “Aces.” “Hey Cinderella.” “Someday Soon.” “Drive South.” “Outbound Plane.” Suzy Bogguss was one of the female voices that defined that decade — a Grammy-winning, multi-platinum artist who earned the CMA Horizon Award, the ACM Top New Female Vocalist award, and eight Top 10 hits before most of her contemporaries had found their footing.
What keeps her interesting four decades in is the range. She has moved through jazz, western swing, Americana, and the Bakersfield sound with the ease of someone who never felt boxed in by a format. American Folk Songbook went deep into folk standards. Lucky was a full Merle Haggard tribute. Prayin’ For Sunshine — recorded at home during the pandemic — was her first album composed entirely of her own material. The through-line across all of it is a songwriter who has kept building, not coasting.
About Cohoes Music Hall
Cohoes Music Hall is at 58 Remsen St. in Cohoes, just north of Albany in the Capital District. The Kevin Richards’ Country Concerts Closeup format means this is a deliberately close-up evening — the kind of setting where you can hear a performer think between songs. If you are based anywhere in the Albany area and have been looking for a reason to get out to a show, this one earns the drive.
