Suzanne Vega: Flying With Angels

Tom's Diner, Luka, Marlene On The Wall, and a new record Rolling Stone liked.

Suzanne Vega plays a career-spanning show taking in the songs everyone knows alongside material from Flying with Angels, released in May 2025 to critical acclaim. Rolling Stone wrote that she "retains her knack for lucid reflections and crisp music to match," and Stereogum went further, calling it no exaggeration to describe her as a straight-up legend.

She is joined on stage by her longtime guitarist Gerry Leonard, known for his work with David Bowie, and cellist Stephanie Winters.

Widely regarded as one of the foremost songwriters of her generation, Vega emerged from the Greenwich Village clubs in the early 1980s folk revival and has been selling out the world's best-known rooms since her self-titled 1985 debut.

Good to know. Tickets start at $49.50, with premium seating listed up to $202.

Where to go. SHU Community Theatre sits on the Post Road in downtown Fairfield, within a short walk of the town center restaurants and an easy run in from anywhere in lower Fairfield County.
