SUSAN SAID

"Big Life" is the best song Susan Wilson-Sed has ever written... it is superb and unreal. The title track off her new album is a tremendous piece of thoughtful agitprop about economic inequality that kicks like a mule." - Iman Lababedi - Iman Lababedi

"Not your typical songwriting, Wilson-Sed creates stories that make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck, and they are delivered by her incredibly powerful voice and hard driving band."
- Dan McKenna, Music XPress - Music XPress

““We’re one girl and three guys creating madness and defying the laws of boring,” Susan Wilson-Sed explained of the alternative-rock band. That they do. It’s that same vivacity that has helped the band find success in a rapidly evolving music industry. Sed's creative songwriting and the bands' amazing musicianship make them stand apart. Wilson-Sed is articulate and stunning - with a powerful belt, and the band (Matt Rocchio - Bass, Todd Budich - Drums and Brendan Saadat - Lead Guitar) brings their relentless energy into a rock conversion that is both entertaining and captivating. Their new release, "BIG LIFE" has hard driving, crunchy choruses and upbeat melodies juxtaposed with Wilson-Sed's darkly humorous turn with lyrics. Check out "On Sunday," and "I Just Don't Care" - two of our faves. They are on our 'Bands to Watch' list.”

Sed’s unmistakable melodic belt and powerful songwriting are accompanied by an equally talented band of musicians. Matt Rocchio on bass and Todd Budich on drums are both as talented as they are visually stimulating to watch. They anchor the bands very tight rhythm section. Brendan Saadat plays a tasty and creative lead guitar. - The Music Review

Susan Said is many things, but boring isn’t one of them.

“That’s our goal, to defy the laws of boring,” Susan Wilson-Sed explained of the alternative-rock band. “We’re one girl and three guys creating madness and defying the laws of boring.”

That they do. It’s that same vivacity that has helped Wilson-Sed and her band find success in an rapidly evolving music industry. - The Examiner

Susan Said - Polyvynilchloride - A full-length cd by this New York based band, fronted by sinewy, alien temptress Susan Sed. Her lead vocals are confrontational and powerful. Topically, the lyrics explore the condition of those maintaining an outward persona while having darker, more insidious agendas, as is apparent on, Mr. Touchy Feely, and Hell is a Gunshot Away, or wariness of the romanticisms of debaucherous NYC, as on Edie - a tribute to Warholian Edie Sedgewick, and Teetering on the Edge - a mirror in the face of those romanticisms. My personal faves are, Edie, and track 5, Bleed - a fusion of rhythmic white noise and Sed's melodic belt. There is an undercurrent of accessibility for radio play without compromise to their hard rock aesthetic, which is probably why they are receiving air play on college radio. - Under The Volcano

"Sed is one of the few intense songwriters of this generation. The tracks - Dirty Wood Floor and BIG LIFE (also the title of the new release) – burn a nice, deep hole in the shallow pop scene of today...”
- Denholm, TAG (Aug 21, 2015) - Examiner
