The Suffers are a soul band ten members strong. While there’s been a soul revival in popular music for a minute, something about the sound that The Suffers has that seems to hit harder than some of their contemporaries. Once we found out that they are from Houston it makes sense, there’s something so primal about the way they attack those licks and hit those notes that it had to come from the south. The Suffers are playing Mercury Lounge on Friday Sept 25th and Rough Trade the next day.
