One of the first blog posts I did was about Susie and Dave Knight. I snapped a pic of Susie and Dave Knight at the Conifer Mountain Music Festival. They were dancing in the summer sun, smiling and laughing, doing the country swing to a Rock n' Roll band. They were newly weds, and he was her "
knight in shining armour." The next time I met Susie was at the Big Chili Cook Off in Evergreen. She was Watoosie the Clown. I recognized her immediately, her smile and happiness is contagious and unmistakable. When I got home I "googled" her. Susie is also Yee-Ha! The Cowpoke Clown. Her clown characters also do a Magical Clown Show, balloon creations and face painting.
Then our paths cross again at Open Mic Night at the Ice House (Thursday nights) Susie was one of the performers, she writes and performs Western songs. So I googled her again.
Susan Knight has a CD out called A Real Cowgirl. Susie is also Lasso the Cowgirl, story teller. Her stage show includes animated stories and music, cowboy poetry (she is a poet), create-a-cowpoke, lasso spinning and a tribute to Roy Rogers.
Susie also has a holiday stage show that is delightful. She incorporates the audience and leads them in Christmas music played on tiny plungers with bells. And, at Christmas time Susie transforms into Mrs. Claus with stories for the children and treats for the reindeer's.
Susie and Dave Knight will be taking part in the Cowboy Reinactment at the National Western Stock Show. Susie will be one of the award winning cowboy poets and musicians performing at the Colorado Cowboy Gathering January 21 & 22. For complete line up and ticket locations go to
