Album Notes

MELODIC, RAW, POWERFUL SOUND is what you can expect from SUSAN SAID

Led by Sue Sed, this tall, blonde, powerhouse changes all ideas you may have about a female fronted rock band. "We just wanna kick ya in the head a little, and wake yer ass up,” quotes Sed. And "wake yer ass up" is exactly what this band does well.
The band won $15,000 in recording time at Avatar in NYC. They were first out of the 500 bands that entered the "Rock to the Top" contest, and it allowed them to record their CD entitled "Thicky" on Bite Me Records. Their EP release, "Superboy,” sold 6,000 copies within 3 months time. The first track, "Teetering on the Edge" - a cynical, humorous song about people on self-destruct missions -was picked by director Jesse Cummings to be the main theme song in his film The Full-Fledged Bastards. Their CD "Polyvinylchloride," which was engineered and co-produced by Bruce Buchanan, rose to the top 5 on numerous college radio stations. Recent credits include playing on bill with The Bloodhound Gang (Universal) & Caviar (Island). They also played on bill with Howie Day at Irving Plaza for the New York Comedy Film Festival starring Janeane Garofalo and Chevy Chase.
Hearing the band's ballad "Run You Away", film director Michael Corrente - (American Buffalo w/Dustin Hoffman, Outside Providence w/Alec Baldwin) - decided to use this tune as the main theme song for his film Federal Hill (starring Nick Turturro).
“Ghosts and Ashes,” the new release, is about to drop on June of 2012.
Sed’s unmistakable melodic belt and powerful songwriting are accompanied by an equally talented band of musicians. Matt Rocchio on bass and Adam Accetta on drums are both as talented as they are visually stimulating to watch. They anchor the bands very tight rhythm section. Brendan Saadat plays a tasty and creative lead guitar. Together they create a wall of sound that is tough and hair raising with catchy hook lines. You won't see or hear a better live show.

There is nothing like a SUSAN SAID show - They will absolutely "kick ya in the head a little, and wake yer ass up!"
