The Superjesus return with brand new single LIGHTS OUT, the follow-up to recent airplay hit Money (We’re Only In It For Love) on June 16. The driving, melodic track – written by Sarah McLeod and Stuart Rudd and produced by drummer Murray Sheridan – provides the perfect backdrop for McLeod’s distinctive vocal.
Sarah McLeod said today, “The Superjesus would like to dedicate this song to Rita Riman. Rita was a longtime fan – she was a member of the band’s very first fan club in the early 90’s. A group of music lovers met through our message board called ‘Static’… before My Space was invented… this group became very familiar to us and attended all our shows for the next couple of decades.
“Rita struggled with mental health issues for many years but her saving grace was always music. Sadly a couple of years ago we lost her and it sent shock waves through all of us. So many people struggle with mental health issues in silence, we need to remember to ask each other if we’re ok. This song is for Rita and the fans who grew up with us.”
The Superjesus kick off the Lights Out Tour 2023 on August 19 at Sydney’s Oxford Arts Factory and play right across the country through until December 10, concluding at Albies Bar in Busselton, WA.
