GET INVOLVED

Suzy Starlite and Simon Campbell are a married couple and full-time musicians.

It has always been tricky making a living from music, especially in these bizarre times.

It's not always clear what the best ways are to support us as artists so we have listed below a number of different ways you can support us from buying directly from our band website or at gigs (the best way) to following us on social media! 

  • The best and most enjoyable way to support the band is by coming to gigs and buying merchandise. You can find out when and where we are playing by joining our mailing list or regularly checking this site. 
  • If you can't make it to a show, a great way to support the band is to buy our existing music and preorder any upcoming releases direct from this site as we see all the money after the Stripe / Paypal fees.  
  • The next best way is by buying music on iTunes or Amazon, or listening on iTunes Music as Apple are the only ones to properly remunerate artists for streaming! 
  • The number of followers we have on Spotify and YouTube is really important but sadly these platforms support the artist the least financially! If you haven't already, please follow us and ask your friends and neighbours to do the same  - thank you!  

In addition to all of these, you can also become a patron!

    SUPPORT OUR NEW ALBUM

    'THE LANGUAGE OF CURIOSITY'

    In autumn 2019 we started recording our second album 'The Language of Curiosity' and  are fortunate to have our own world class,  'semi mobile' recording studio which saves the massive expense of hiring a great commercial facility which costs a minimum of £500 per day! Of course this is the reason why we don't own our own home :)

    This allows us to spend enough time to really get things right and of course ramp up our output of new music. 

    PROGRESS

    So far we have recorded most of the rhythm and keyboard parts.

    Two singles have been completed and released in 2020; 'Stone Cold Crazy' and 'Lay It Out On Me'. 

    Due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic and various lockdowns, we are still waiting for Steve Gibson to be able to fly out from the UK to the studio in Portugal to complete recording of the remaining drum tracks.

    The artwork and photography of an album often define the 'feel' of the record.

We work with designer Barry Kinder of Tack & Kern for our artwork and the remarkable Phil Kneen for photography. Donate here to support this part of the process. In return, you will receive a CD of 'The Language of Curiosity' when released and a mention on the sleeve.
