The Space Lady, aka Susan Dietrich Schneider, became a staple of the Bay Area outsider music scene through years of busking the streets out of necessity. Her ethereal, echo-laden arrangements have won her a new generation of starry-eyed admirers via her recent “greatest hits” compilation. Far Off Sounds hangs out in LA with Susan for a few days, filming performances on the street, onstage, and in the mountains, as we find out what circumstances brought Susan to live such a unique life.

"If you are in tune with nature, nature will take care of you", gotta remember those words for the rest of my life
Love the part where she sings "humanize me", sounds so ethereal
Her totem is the seagull.
She makes life better just by existing
I lived in San Francisco from 1979 to 2011. The Space Lady brought simple happiness to me every time I saw her in the 80's.
Yes ,Dave 1979 to 2011 what wonderful memories she would play near Civic Center.
The Space Lady visited my bookshop when she was touring (Melbourne Australia.) What a treat! She might be an 'outsider' but she is INSIDE our hearts.
There was a time in my life when I saw The Space Lady pretty much everyday. Between seeing her all over the city busking to her coming into the video store I worked at, there was a hardly a day I didn't run into or pass by her. Early 90s San Francisco would have her on it's mix-tape!
She was performing in the 80s too
Spec's bar
I moved to SF in 1989 and my BF and I encountered her her multiple times (first time on LSD in Chinatown). She was singing the song Downtown. She was so beautiful. The last time we saw her, she was getting ready to head home so we gave her a ride in my hatchback. We were glad she allowed us to take her home and speak with her.
Tonight, I watched Girl Interrupted. If you don’t know, Downtown is a significant song in the film. It made me look her up with a hope to find her. So glad to know she is still out there with her ethereal music!

Is she one of The Residents? If she isn't then she should be! Imagine what would happen if her and Randy got together! both musically and any offspring! AWESOME!!

Yay! Hi Susan! So wonderful to run into you on the internet. It was always a joy to see you performing on the street in San Francisco. Daniel and I miss seeing you and always wondered where you went. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Fucking amazing omg!!!!!!!!
Far off aounds! If ahe’d have had the looks like when she was 20y younger, she could have been a superstar. Well... as it is all avout the music, lostening is done with ears, not eyes (lots of people it is the opposite!) this is great!! No worse insult then “you look good FOR YOUR AGE”, but very true in this case....
