WHO IS "SUSAN GET DOWN"?
Susan Get Down is a three-piece electronica supergroup comprised of solo artist Devian Starr and dance duo Remake Up (Jem/Mr. A.). Devian met Jem on the Goldfrapp message board and decided to do one track together - "HotBoxx". Devian had already written the lyrics but had shelved the song as it didn't fit his typical moody artrock format. When Jem sent an untitled, music-only track, Devian realized that his lyrics fit perfectly with the music and a beautiful musical relationship was created. What started as one song turned into two, then three, and so forth - you get the idea.
WHERE DOES THE NAME "SUSAN GET DOWN" COME FROM?
Since "Devian Starr & Remake Up" just wasn't going to cut it in terms of a band name, the trio decided to come up with something else. They asked friends, their fans - everyone for input. Nothing seemed to stick. One day, Jem sent Devian an email, recommending "Susan Get Down", which was the title of a song by the Spanish duo Almodóvar & McNamara. The theme of the song seemed to fit the same dirty, complex mood of the music Devian and Remake Up were creating, so it was decided that "Susan Get Down" would be the name of the band!
WHERE DO YOU ALL LIVE???
Devian is an American and lives in San Diego, California. Jem and Mr. A. are both Spanish and live in Malaga, Spain. Even though the trio are continents apart, they are connected by a mutual love of melody and just seem to click - even though they have never met in person!!!
