SUMMARY:Susan Wojnar and Michael Sean McDonald in The Rialto Living Room
DESCRIPTION:Susan Wojnar\n\nCutting her musical teeth on all-girl hard rock
  bands such as The Heartbeats and The Pranksters\, the bluesy harmonica du
 o of PixE and Susan\, and the R&B group "Cold Sweat\," Susan Wojnar is a m
 usician who has come into her own. Her voice has a pungency that is part p
 unk\, part folk\, part bluesy nightclub singer.  Drawing upon roots rock\,
  blues and folk\, she tackles social issues\, "slices of life" and of cour
 se\, matters of the heart. Her unique style is anything but passive --reac
 hing out and grabbing the listener by the ear and never letting go. She re
 leased her 3rd CD in 2023\, Starz on the Water featuring the song "Undergr
 ound Winter Blues\," which made the top 20 blues songs of 2023 on Y-103.  
 "Show Me" and "Jo and Ed's\, Bar" also from the CD will be released this F
 all by Diamond Country Records of Nashville.  An older version of "Right L
 ove Wrong Time" from the CD was released by Canadian indie label RotoNoto.
   Her "true story" single\, "Don't Cry For Me\," which details the life an
 d times of a Vietnam Veteran\, was also released earlier on Bastards of Pr
 otocol Records. Ms Wojnar is also a poet who has just published White Dark
 ness: Poetic Tales of the Schizophrenic Experience\, a collection of vivid
 \, gut wrenching poetry based on 23 years experience of coping with Schizo
 phrenia.  She is active in the fight against stigma from mental health iss
 ues and in raising awareness of the realities of mental health and recover
 y. She has been regularly giving readings and presentations since the book
  was published in late 2023.  Susan resides happily in Youngstown\, Oh wit
 h her dear cat\, Tia.\n\nMichael Sean McDonald\n\nCleveland songwriter Mic
 hael Sean McDonald’s music is filled with toe-tapping blues and heartfel
 t ballads that cover the full spectrum of the human experience. His lyrics
  aren’t topical in the traditional sense\, but the characters and situat
 ions he sings about articulate human nature from a deeply personal perspec
 tive that is at once emotionally evocative and compellingly philosophical.
  Michael’s performances leave audiences asking for more.\n\nHear Michael
