Van Susans are a Pop/Rock band residing in London’s leafy suburbs. Consisting of Olly Andrews, Will Showler, Holly McLatchie and brothers Rob Dullaway and Ed Dullaway, the group have a burning passion for melodic harmonies and tales of love and heartbreak, accompanied by both beautiful acoustic rhythms and assertive electric guitar riffs.
Van Susans are signed to the independent label, Beatnik Geek Records and cite classic mid nineties/early noughties bands such as Jack’s Mannequin, Jimmy Eat World, Something Corporate, Dashboard Confessional, Jamie T and Incubus. Their line-up includes the usual lead/backing vocals, guitars, keyboards and the occasional sounds of a violin played by Holly. In the run up to their debut release, the band spent their days writing and touring relentlessly, performing at established venues like London’s Indigo 2 and Clapham’s Grand.
Van Susan’s debut EP, We Could Be Scenery was released back in May 2011 and showcases the band’s effortless ability to write killer hooks, big choruses and instantly sing-along, well crafted melodies. Their new album “Paused In The Moment” is available now.
