Good morning. Today we’re listening to SUSS, an American band based in New York City. We’ve recommended their work three times before. The trio makes “ambient country,” a fusion of pure ambient music (Brian Eno, Harold Budd) and instrumental country (Ry Cooder, Lloyd Green). Last week they released a collaboration with Australian banjoist Andrew Tuttle on
Thanks SO much for stuff like this. I've been listening to ambient music intensively for 40 years, and I love the fact that there are artists, and entire labels, I've NEVER heard of. Brilliant. This sort of thing will keep me alive for decades longer, I hope (!)
Loved the SUSS+Tuttle collaboration, will have to read interview later. Rich in timbral textures and suitable for work and relaxation. Perhaps they will release more together.

Fabulous! It definitely expresses something rising ...capturing a zeitgeist! Thank you!
Really nice stuff and right up my alley - thanks!

So what's the name of the cafe in Long Island City??
From Bob: "LIC Corner Cafe"
Awesome, I'll check it out when I'm in the city. Gracias!
Also, great interview :)
Great interview! I’m wondering if this means that a lot of their pieces are recorded asynchronously and not done in the same room together?
From Bob: "A lot of our music before, during, and 'after' the pandemic was done remotely, so our working with Andrew felt pretty natural."
Thanks for getting that answer over, that's great
