Betty Soo an artist at Woodyfest in Oklahoma

A long-celebrated songwriter based in Austin, Texas, BettySoo is an acoustic guitar-wielding Korean-American flat- and finger-picking her way through the ever relatable terrains of love, hope, disappointment, maturity, and loss. Her voice is unlike any other, and since touring shows came back out of the pandemic, her car tires have barely had a chance to cool. Touring nonstop as a solo act and as dedicated support for artists such as James McMurtry and Chris Smither, she has wooed and welcomed thousands of new fans over the past few years, exciting listeners and members of the industry alike.

Watch for new album If You Never Go Away to be released this summer, produced by longtime friend and collaborator Will Sexton in Memphis, TN.
