Susi Hyldgaard (17 June 1963 — 21 January 2023) was a Danish jazz singer and composer. Although she studied music in Boston and Copenhagen, she first worked as a reporter for Danmarks Radio. It was only in 1996 that she turned to singing with her album ''My Female Family''. She went on to perform a blend of rock, pop and funk, later concentrating mainly on jazz. Hyldgaard became well known for her performances in Germany, Canada and the United States. For six years, she headed the Danish jazz composers union DJBFA (Danske Jazz, Beat og Folkemusik Autorer) until she became ill in 2019.
