ABOUT

Vocalist Susie Lofton is an enchanting vocalist and songwriter who commands a sweet and soulful voice that resonates and carries a passion for music that illuminates the soul.

Seeking (preferably Christian) BASSIST and DRUMMER with an eclectic range. Need to be keen on playing styles including metal pop (Thrice / Living Colour), dream pop/shoe gaze (Mazzy Star / Cocteau Twins / My Bloody Valentine).

I grew up on rock (RUSH), soul (Chaka Khan) and fusion Jazz (Correa, Weather Report). Looking for folks who can help coordinate some of these sensibilities into this project of originals and select covers.

My area is north shore burbs.
