Band: DESPERATELY SEEKING SUKI
Who: The musical project of siblings Natassa Zoë (actor, musician, and writer),
who lives between Australia and the UK, and Danny Pugh, based in Bristol. It started by
sending tracks back and forth across continents before reuniting to launch their debut EP.
Together, they craft a sonic tapestry that fuses melodic indie pop, art pop, and dynamic synth pop. Influenced by Wolf Alice, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Arcade Fire and The Naked and Famous.
Track: SUKI
Debut single, part of
their upcoming EP.
Natassa: “Suki is about embracing the light and dark in yourself and finding love that holds through the chaos.Our moniker nods to Desperately Seeking Susan (note: 1985 movie starring Madonna) and mirrors how the project began. My brother and I sending ideas back and forth between the UK and Australia. ‘Suki’ also relates to love, and the idea of searching for love in some form felt like something most people could relate to.”
”
TUTV: Scintillating synths design an orchestral canvas for Zoë‘s part-spoken/part-sung poetic reflections on mixed emotions on this melodramatic pop roller coaster, while bass/drums punchiness bolsters the effervescent chorus that arouses a vitality we all
need in life to survive, especially in these uncertain times.
Suki has a hopeful, encouraging briskness that helps dispel your doubting frame of mind. On different levels, a magnific debut and the accompanying witty video will put a smile on your face. John Lennon was right all the time, “All you need is love.”
