SUZERAIN

The band playing at the last party at the end of the world! And everyone's invited.
SUZERAIN have been wowing crowds and winning hearts at London's best venues for 5 years. An alternative rock band with a punk edge, they produce (according to Subba-Cultcha.com), "High octane New Wave rock, delivered with aplomb"
Since forming in 2006, they've gigged tirelessly across London. The influential promoters Feedme Music describe them as "Probably the finest act we have seen since launching" and this reputation for being a first-class live acts has got them a raft of very good gigs along the way - Wireless Festival, IndigO2, Scala, LA2, 100 Club and Clothes Show Live to name a few (not to mention playing to 1000s of people in Trafalgar Square during Pride). Oh, and they were named the Best UK Alternative Act at The Metro�€™s prestigious Indy Awards.
Their sound has been variously described as "New Wave Rock", "Electro Indie Disco" and even "Electro-band revival, reborn with a new contemporary sound". Guitarist Rich Summers explains the band's musical ethos, "Our aim was to produce the most awesome danceable rock possible. We used to hang out at Indie clubs like Trash, seeing people like Erol Alken each week, that was a big influence on us."
Having established themselves as ones to watch on the London circuit, SUZERAIN have set their minds on spreading their influence further afield. As well as earning themselves an enviable reputation across the UK, they are also making excellent headway in Europe and across the world - gathering fans and achieving industry interest after a string of high profile dates including: headlining Angra Rock Festival in the Azores, as well as playing a host of European festivals including NRJ in the Park (Munich, with Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party); Reeperbahn Festival in Hamburg, Roma Rocks in Rome, and Boccadilo in Sicily.
Last year SUZERAIN released their debut EP: Apocalypse Disco (which led Artrocker to declare, "This band deserve to be absolute stars"), and have recently completed work on their first album Midnight in the Drawn City, produced by Steve Lyon (Depeche Mode, The Cure) and due for release later in 2010.
"What Happened?", the first track from the album was released as a single and Video on May 31st 2010 in the UK and from 18th June across Germany Austria and Switzerland.
Attracting interest from across Europe, SUZERAIN are set to provide the sound track to the highs and lows of the 21st century.
