Xmas Party - Thursday 29th Dec 2005

We're playing our home away from home, Madame JoJos, as part of The
Glitz Xmas Party

Entry is 5 with a flyer (click here & see below), doors open at 9:00pm, we're on stage at about 10:00. Cheap drinks ALL NIGHT!

Also playing are the oh so cool Receiver and Pornovurt who you may have seen playing at quite a few of our other gigs recently...

We'd also like to let you know that as Jim is recovering from his dodgy foot, we are pleased to announce the introduction of Ben, our stand in drummer! This guy is an absolute demon behind a drum kit, he produces beats so infectious we are legally obliged to warn you of their potency.

See you all next Thursday - Dress SEXY!!!

Suzerain - LIFE ON FILM VIDEO

SUZERAIN - LIFE ON FILM

Life On Film was recorded live at the Marquee Club inLeicester Square in the heart of London - UK.








The entire video was shot by fans of the band on their mobile phones, the material was then edited and put together by young video director Paul Stevenson (Visual Hybrid - www.visual-hybrid.co.uk).

The inspiration for the video was the use and influence of mobile phones in our modern world.

Their uses range from donating money to disaster funds, to detonating weapons of terror. The mobile phone has changed the way the world communicates. Suzerain reflect this with this video.

For more information see www.suzerainmusic.com or www.myspace.com/suzerainmusic.

Video Edited & Produced by Paul Stevenson - Visual Hybrid
Filmed Live @ The Marquee - Leicester Square July 2005

Suzerain Gig & Music Video Online Now!!

Hey Everybody,

Brrr it's cold! Hope you're all wrapped up warm!

2 GREAT things to tell you...

Firstly, a reminder that we're playing the oh so cool and trendy Metro club on Oxford Street on Monday (28th Nov - 19-23 Oxford Street - London), doors open at about 9:00pm, we're on stage just after 10:00. The whole place stays open after the gig and turns into a great club. Entry is £4 with a flyer (see www.suzerainmusic.com). BE THERE!!

Secondly - we've finished the much anticipated 'Life on Film' video!! If you don't remember (or weren't on the mailing list/a friend) we asked you guys to film us playing our song 'Life on Film' when we played the Marquee back in July. Well the video has now been cut and edited by video director Paul Stevenson (Visual Hybrid www.visual-hybrid.co.uk).

Take a look at www.myspace.com/suzerainmusic to view the video, or alternatively go to www.suzerainmusic.com/video-1.htm - you can view it and download it to your computer from there.

We decided to use mobile phones to record a music video for a few reasons, a) mobile phones have invaded peoples lives so much over the past few years. b) people have used mobile phones to donate money for crisis's, yet also to detonate weapons of terror c) it was cheaper than getting a video company in!

Massive thanks to all of you who sent in footage - you're mentioned on our myspace. If we've forgotten to include you please email in and we'll sort it out!! We love the videos you sent in!

So take a look and let us know what you think...

Catch you on Monday!
