Opposing Sides (2025) is a mashup of sonic and emotional contrasts: fuzzed out post-punk/post-rock, ethereal, layered vocals, post-modern minimalism, odd/mixed meters. More
Rumours Redux (2025) is a modern re-imagining of songs from Fleetwood Mac's seminal album, Rumours, with unexpected arrangements that encompass math rock, dream pop, and psychedelia. More
A classically trained multi-instrumentalist, Suzanne Stern creates layered, textural, genre-spanning albums of evocative, melodic, and uneasy music.

Her genre-spanning solo work incorporates harmonic, ethereal vocal arrangements, ambient and post-punk guitar work; lyrical, driving basslines; and painstakingly crafted drum tracks.
Suzanne's idiosyncratic style is informed by her early experience in symphonic, orchestral, jazz, and world music ensembles; her mastery of polyrhythmic and odd/mixed meter timing; and a love of effect pedals.
She gained notoriety in New York City as leader (bass/guitar/vocals) of the art/prog metal band Ruby Bullet, whose two albums were produced with Grammy-winning engineer Jason Corsaro. She has shared the stage with noted guitarists Aurelien Budynek and Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, performed and recorded with numerous NYC-area bands, and produced songs for independent television programming.
Suzanne currently produces albums in her mini-studio in Vermont. Her 2025 solo releases Rumours Redux and Opposing Sides are part of a conceptual trilogy of soundtracks for films that will never be made.
