HELLO WORLD

Yep the Sons are back... in the the rehearsal studio at least.

We've all had time to cut our hair and grow our beards so now it's back to the music.

Sorry it's been so long.

We'll be back out in the real world again soon enough.


Speak soon yeah


SoS

ps - remind yourself how awesome we sound here.

Another month away from gigging but here at SoS headquarters it's been GO GO GO

There's been flights all over Europe, adventures around the UK and a new haircut…

We're looking forward to getting settled into some good rehearsal sessions within the next couple of weeks and getting our faces back in front of your lovely faces

So watch this space for exciting new things ahead
See ya VERY soon!

Love
SoS

Jubilee times…

Well after a VERY busy Jubilee weekend with our first gig out of london and drinking and dancing in the street it's all back to normal at SoS HQ.

We're currently booking up time to get back in the studio and really hone the new sound so we can come out again fighting later on this Summer.

So if you think you might miss us then make sure you come along to our last gig for a little while this Friday

Until then we shall be most listening to these tunes…


Love
SoS

BOTB week

We did TWO  Battle Of The Bands last week!

The first was for Eclectic [Sounds Ltd] in central
It was a really fun night, unfortunately we didn't win it but the guys that did were ruddy awesome so it was very much deserved. Check their videos out by clicking on the Eclectic link above.

Here's our vid from the night, the sound is a bit ropey but don't let that put you off…




The second battle was at The Finsbury pub, another fun night and a great venue. The other bands were awesome, not quite sure what the outcome was but it's safe to say it was THE hottest stage on Earth!

Now looking forward to our gig this weekend as we head to Kent to make some noise at a Jubilee Beer Festival [lots of awesome craft beers YEAH] if you're in the area come along!

Love
SoS

been a while…

As you know we've been busy doing the usual gigging, recording, promoting, writing and drinking… and it feels like we haven't shared any of that with you in AGES

So here's a little compilation of video featuring a little teaser of one of our new tunes 'CITING

Recording times at Dental Record…

What a productive sunny weekend… despite spending it almost entirely in a basement!

We were BROKEN but we were READY.
We managed to turn up bright and early on Saturday morning to lay down some tunage with DENTAL RECORDS [they do a lot of awesome work across music/video/media so do check them out]

The studio space was amazing, all the guys there were ruddy lovely and there was a good little italian restaurant just round the corner so we were well happy

Now it's all down to the mix, can't wait to hear what they come up with 'CITING… as soon as we have them all sorted you'll be the first to know, so keep your ears peeled!

Love 

SoS 

We got blogged…

…by the lovely people at The Unsigned, see
http://theunsignedsounds.com/2012/03/18/ep-40-sons-of-susan/

They compared us to QOTSA and Black keys, we can't really ask for anything better than that really, although slightly surprised they didn't pick up on Jamie's huge Lionel Richie influence but hey-ho?!

recording, gigging, photoshooting and Mums…

The Sons have been busy as usual, rehearsing, tending to our beards and practising our rock pouts but we've also been organising some much needed PROPER things

We've got recording booked in for next weekend so you can have our new tunes in your ears ALL the time; then some more fun gig times the weekend after [30th March, hope to see you there]; and then early April we'll be getting our faces photographed by our very talented photoman friend Mark Arrigo [who helped direct and shoot the video]

Then we'll have a complet EPK to send out and harass people with… SoS style!

BUT before any of this can happen we need to spend some much deserved time with our lovely Mums [Susan] as over here in the UK it is Mothering Sunday YEAH

So while that is all happening don't forget to have another watch of our hairy faces wandering around beaches throwing things at each other!

See ya'll soon

SoS

OFFICIAL NUMBER 1 FAN

• She's been a fan ALL of her life (a claim no one else on the planet can make) 

• She's seen the video more times than ANYONE else

• She knows ALL the lyrics to the songs (pretty sure that's what she's singing)

• She's got dance routines sorted

• She has a t-shirt to prove it

Definitely worthy of the number one title we say THANKS REBECCA

Friday FUNTIMES…

After an epic but also super tiring rehearsal last night we are all very much excited about the gig this Friday WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
(…see)

The details are all here on faceybooks so have a look and come on down!

NEW SITE

To go along with our SPARKLY new video we've had a little revamp of the site too SEE
It's still work in progress as we'll be adding bits to it over the next month or so, but we're pleased with it so far… we've got a top guy working on it

Hope you all like it too!

Now treat yourself by watching the video again YEAH

Love
SoS

IT HAS ARRIVED…

Like an early Valentine's treat for us we were SUPER excited to recieve the final graded version of the Nothing To Say video today!

Check it out and share it about… tell us what you think of it too

(Treat yourself and go full screen, it will increase the epicness)

ENJOY!!

PIXELtastic

We've got some free things to give away… not music just yet, but something just as delightful we hope you agree.

Some pixelated artwork of yours truly for you to adorn your desktop and smartphone with

(click the image below to be taken to the downloadable versions)

ENJOY

Awaiting THE EDIT

So whilst we eagerly await the next cut of out first music video we've already started to plan the next… we like to plan ahead!

The usual rock cliches would obviously have to be adhered to so that means we'd need one or all of these things; a big performance piece, sexy rock ladies, more slow-mo walking, fast cars/motorcylces, bar fight scene… the list goes on.

For a bit of inspiration though you can't go far wrong with Kasabian's latest offering. Best car has to be the little red one ENJOY

A lovely new header

If you visit our site often (let's face it, who doesn't!?) you may have noticed that we have a new header image…

These photos were taken last year by our very talented photo lady friend Felicity.

So we'd like to say THANKS FELICITY for making us look moody, edgy… and vaguely handsome.

Love
SoS

New Year TREAT

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Hope you all had a ruddy lovely time

We can't wait to get our teeth into the new tracks and really start pushing things forward in 2012, but before we get too excited…

We'd like to sincerely thank everyone for all the support through 2011.
We had an amazing time playing for you all and can't believe the support we've had live and online, been totally and utterly amazing!

So as a small token of our appreciation we've got a free download for you below



Enjoy and see you soon!

Love
SoS

PROUD, BOAT TIMES, CRIMBO & NEW YEARS

It's been a while since we've updated our blog here goes…

The last week leading up to Crimbo was pretty hectic, we had The Showdown FINAL at Proud in Camden, amazing turn out from everyone and we had an awesome time again! Our mates FELLA deservedly won the occasion and it looks like we nmight be either playing or gig swapping with them in the new year NICEY (if you havent already check them out HERE)

Then on the wednesday we relaxed with a massive pre-crimbo dinner, is was expertly cooked by Tom and his brother Nick, everyone was stuffed and could barely move so that was job done!

Thursday was boat times with Rees and The Exiles AMAZING for the first time we had no backline and Darren arrived slightly drunken but we pulled through and quite literally ROCKED THE BOAT can't wait to play with those guys again in the new year (if you havent already check them out HERE)

Then for Crimbo and new year The Sons are taking a break. we're back home with and respective Susan and family and then all over the place for new years, ready to hit it hard in 2012!

We're planning on honing our new tunes for the come back gig of 2012 at The Good Ship, it'll be an  amazing Saturday night and for the first time ever ALL the Susans will be in attendance… so it's worth coming along just for that!

Anyways, hope you all have a fun and jolly holiday season, look forward to seeing all your fresh faces in the new year

Love
SoS

CAMDEN knees-up

We're playing The Enterprise in Camden tomorrow night.

A venue where we have all spent plenty of evenings dancing and drinking and generally making fools of ourselves…

So tomorrow night (Tuesday at 8pm to be exact) we'll be trying to rectify all of that drunken stupidity with a very awesome set of our tunes!

Come on down and check us out, it'd be lovely to see you all

Taking Me Over…

Last month, one cold EARLY morning we drove out of London town and to a small little studio that we know to record a new little song.

Here is a brief and mostly uninformative video diary-esque look at that day… with a little preview of the track at the end

ENJOY
