The New Girl x Sorry Darlin

Hi Everyone! :)

I’m so excited to start blogging for Sorry, Darlin and join this wonderful group of ladies!  It’s always tough being the new girl in town (I just moved here in September), but everyone has made me feel so welcome and I’m proud to call Atlanta home.

But first! Intros!

I’m Susannah and I help run a record label based out of Montreal, Machette Records. I’ve worked in the music bizz since I was 18 – touring, putting out records, press, the works! Since music is/has always been the foundation of my life, why not write about it here? I’ll be covering local shows and happenings, fun interviews, album reviews, monthly mixtapes – all things glitter and grime! Don’t worry, I’ll most likely include pictures of shoes and candy in all my posts too. ;)

Records n Leopard

A girl is nothing without her records and shoes!

With a new year comes new changes, and I’ve been thinking about challenging myself in SO many different areas (the gym is never going to happen though), but especially ENGAGEMENT. I used to listen to each album I bought obsessively. When I listened, that’s all I would do. There was no texting, no Facebooking or Tweeting. Nothing else! Going to the local record store or rummaging through my own collection used to be a treat, not a chore. It’s easy to think “so what” and go back to running a thousand errands, Starbucks soy latte in hand, idly listening to my iPod on shuffle. I think we’re all like this in some ways (let’s face it, it’s hard work being young entrepreneurs!), but I think we’re losing something. I’m no longer engaging with and having a relationship with music the way I used to. So, that’s one of my (many) challenges to myself this year, and to you! Give yourself time and make the effort to truly connect deeply and completely with the things (and people, duh!) you love.

All that being said, I hope to meet EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU soon! If I’m not at a show, you can find me at:

What better way to consummate our new friendship then by dropping my first monthly mixtape on all y’all! It features some bands/artists I work with and a couple local favorites.  It’s a dreamy, shoegaze-y, haze-y little number. Enjoy <3

Holy Smoke y'all!

Your Newest Darlin,

Who Disco? You Disco! Nu Disco!

One of our favy boyfriends and everyone’s pal, Dj black Sunshine, has a new mixtape and we want to share it with the WHOLE world! Anytime we hear disco, we can’t control our sexy darlin legs! We just wanna DANCE, DANCE, DANCE!! This mixtape, which was heavily influenced by the blog Salacious Sound, reflects on some super fun groovalicious Nu Disco from 2011. So put on your sequins, place yourself directly under the disco ball and push play!

Trailer Trash Tracys


Trailer Trash Tracys perfectly straddle the line between darkness and light. The band, hailing from London, is made up of vocalist Suzanne Aztoria, guitarist Jimmy-Lee, bassist Adam Jaffrey and drummer Dayo James. Their sound seems to be the perfect blend of shoegaze meets Dick Dale surf, especially in the track that brought them radio time, Candy Girl. “Taking their cues from wide, varied influences and interests such as ‘solfeggio harmonics, the transitionary period of analogue to digital in Western pop music and Sufi Poetry’”, the quartet make kaleidoscopic yet otherworldly pop songs.”(Domino)

TTT, just snatched up by Double Six records, will be releasing their debut EP Ester on the projected date of January 16th. Save up your Christmas spending money!
