Hey, how about that. It's working again... anyway, the very great Suzy Y Los Quattro are headed for the International Pop Overthrow in Liverpool on May 28th. They'll play 2 shows that day one at The cavern and another, later, at Lennons.

A CD/DVD package which includes some choice cover versions (recorded in Tokyo last November) will be out in July via Wizzard In Vinyl. I had a preview of the songs and they're cracking. These include "I Need Your Love" by The Boyfriends via The Ramones and further indicate why this is a premier party combo! Check out the band's myspace portal if your conned-puter can handle it. Mine can't.

"The Singles", the compilation featuring all of our pre-Ready To Go stuff, is now available to the rest of the world (it had only been released in Japan) on CD through No Tomorrow and on LP through Screaming Apple. Vinyl is limited to 700 copies and I heard it's going fast so anyone interested contact those labels or the brand new WILD PUNK online store I'm running.

Coky Quattro has retired from the live activity of Suzy & Los Quattro due to work overload at his Rockaway Studios in Castellon. He still will play some shows with us and remain our producer and record the albums with us, but for the live shows we now have Claudio Glaesmer from great Barcelona punk band LAS SOMBRAS.

We are about to start a tour with the japanese band that toured with us in Japan, ONEPERCENTRES. Their new album, "Platinum Bundle" is available now on Wild Punk Records, they are an AMAZING mix of WEEZER and FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE and seriously kick ass live.
