Susan SurfTone
- Soundtrack
Susan has been playing guitar since the Beatles arrived in the United
States in 1964. A graduate of Boston University School of Law Susan
began to play professionally in the mid-1980's after a stint with the
FBI as a Special Agent. Susan's bands featured a vocalist and Susan's
original music. In 1995 Susan dropped the vocalist but kept writing and
formed the all-instrumental Susan and the SurfTones. A record deal with
Gee-Dee Music, a small label in Hamburg, Germany, led to four
well-received European tours. Susan was subsequently signed by Italian
label, OmOm Music. Songs were placed on MTV's The Real World Season 20
and Nissan used Susan's original material in an Italian promotional
video. Susan's music is also used frequently in Lance Lambert's Vintage
Vehicles cable TV show aired around the world. In 2011 Susan began to
record and perform as Susan SurfTone. 2011 saw the release of her
critically acclaimed solo CD "Shore". In 2013 her second CD as Susan
SurfTone, "Too Far", was featured in the Huffington Post. Susan
followed up with the 2014 release of "Reckoning", a well-received
six-song EP. With her three solo recordings Susan has expanded the
reach of surf music into pop/rock combining influences from a broad
spectrum while remaining rooted in a retro yet modern sound. She also
occasionally tours on the West Coast
