Exclusive: SUSS Drops New Ambient Country Track 'Sunset IX'
SUSS, the New York ambient country trio, returns with the serene new track "Sunset IX." The song extends their patient, minimalist soundscapes, offering another glimpse into their textured world. Featuring veterans of the B-52s and Rubber Rodeo, this release matters as it deepens their signature blend of windswept atmosphere and country-tinged drone.

The band, composed of longtime music veterans Pat Irwin (B-52s, Raybeats, 8 Eyed Spy), Bob Holmes (Rubber Rodeo), and Jonathan Gregg (The Linemen, Jonathan Gregg & the Lonesome Debonaires), debuted together with their 2018 album Ghost Box.
