Blues rock guitar sensation Susan Santos is set to release her new album Sonora on Friday 5 April 2024. Pre-order the album on vinyl and CD from www.susansantos.info/shop, and pre-save it digitally from https://orcd.co/sonoraalbum.
Susan’s new “Snakebite” single has just been released, and is available, to stream at https://orcd.co/snakebite.
“On Snakebite, I wanted to achieve the darkest and most swampy point of the album,” says Santos. “It’s a poisoned love story narrated as if it were a duel to the death and at gunpoint in the Wild West.”
“The female protagonist feels enslaved, as if bitten by a snake, poisoned and it’s clear to her that she does not intend to waste her last bullet by sitting still while the poison makes its way through her veins. Sand, sweat and a whistle in the background.”
Sonorais Santos’ sixth studio album. The album title encapsulates the overall vibe that permeates throughout the eight songs. Although each of the album tracks vary in style, they all share a common thread – the desert. Sonora is the first that that Santos fully identities in more ways than one. The album is diverse and encompasses guitar styles that ranges from Western to psychedelia.
Sonora is the album of the desert, and the desert people. The songs tell stories ranging from survival, thirst, outlaws, escape, and freedom against a backdrop of scorpions, lizards, and roadrunners. Before listening, it is highly recommended to embark on your road journey with a full tank, and don’t pick up any hitchhikers.
