Blending elements of pop, folk, and electronica on her debut album, pamelasuemann (self-released), she has been likened to artists as diverse as Kate Bush and Shawn Colvin, Natalie Merchant and the Cocteau Twins.

In early spring of 2002, Pamela toured with Suzanne Vega throughout Europe and in New York City, singing supporting vocals, and performed in Vega's upcoming video of "Last Year's Troubles."
