I know that you don't love me I know my feelings are deadly I know you'll be with somebody else by dawn But I'll stick around

Suzy Jones Turns Last Supper Into a Food Fight in “Tonight” Video

What puts the power in a power ballad? Is it the ascent to the belted high notes of a chorus? Is it the fire-in-your-gut feeling of rooting for the underdog, earnestly navigating the trenches of unrequited love? Is it the fact that anyone can sing it in the shower and, if only for a moment, feel like Adele? Soulful songstress Suzy Jones knows the secret to the perfect power ballad, and her latest single “Tonight” is sonic proof. After her singles “Final Piece” and “Now!,” Jones graced audiences with “Tonight,” which is joined today by a must-see accompanying music video. 

Expect to see heartbreaking realness in the form of steadfast female friendships, a relationship on the outs, and a last supper-turned-food fight. Directed by NYC-based director Jacqueline Justice, the video for “Tonight” captures the sun setting on the formal dining space of a mansion, as the dust settles on a broken relationship inside.

In a dress fit for a funeral, Jones sings of her one-sided relationship and the knowledge of its inevitable end. She steps onto the dinner table and walks through the elaborate dinner food, singing, “I know you’ll be with somebody else by dawn / But I’ll stick around, just for tonight / There’s so much I could say, I’ll save it for another day / That’s how I’m gonna get by.” 

With yet another impressive visual release, Jones proves that she has both the talent and the artistic vision to cut through the noise. We’ll definitely be singing this one in the shower. 

Check out her video for “Tonight” below for a dose of empowerment, commiseration, and goosebumps

Soulful Songstress Suzy Jones Is Boldly Resilient in Her “Final Piece” Video

Though her moniker might evoke images of the girl next door, Suzy Jones is far from common. The Georgia-native is bold in her artistic presence, with a sultry jazz-infused husk coating her stunning vocals and dynamic songwriting. Her latest single, “Final Piece,” comes with a delightfully vintage music video, featuring the singer’s playful stage presence and colorful vision. Having supported Donna Missal and Marc Broussard on tour and garnered a loyal fanbase of her own, the past few years have seen Jones establish herself as one to watch. Suzy Jones makes music that takes up space, demanding well-deserved attention with her powerful vocals and larger-than-life personality. Her latest video is a must see, and marks the beginning of an inevitably long and fruitful career for the singer.

“Final Piece” is an anthem for moving on. Produced by Andy Rose and passionately executed by Jones, the track is soul food in sonic form. Complete with iconic makeup looks and GIF-worthy glances from the singer, the video for “Final Piece” is a testament to creative minds meeting to conceive a brilliant product. 

The director of the video, Maris Jones, commented on the making of the visual, saying,

"I wanted to create a video that was grounded in a certain world but also making it dynamic and colorful to highlight the depth and beauty of Suzy and her personality. Her song immediately reminded me of 60s soul music but with a modern edge and I wanted to be able to create that same feeling visually, I thought of it as an emotional collage."

Give the music video a watch, and look out for Suzy Jones as she continues her zestful journey through the music industry. She’s got icon-in-the-making energy.

*First, I want to start off by saying sorry for already being inconsistent. I’m still building this page, and I’m having trouble thinking of what to post. It’s my summer break from school, so I’ll try to create more content.*

So last Friday, May 25th, I went to a concert alone for the first time. I went to listen to Lawrence and Michael Blume, and I got to listen to Suzy Jones for the first time.

The concert was at The Independent in San Francisco, which is about 45 minutes from where I live, so I spent a good amount of my day with no one to talk to. I’m a homebody, suburban chick, so being in a big city alone was a bit nerve-racking.

I got to the venue a little bit more than an hour early, and I didn’t want to stand in the line of only two people, so I decided to walk the block to pass time. Even though it’s a big city, and most people are just minding their own business, I couldn’t help but feel like people were watching me loop the block so many times. I get terribly anxious anytime I’m out in public by myself, whether it be grocery shopping or simply walking to class, and adding to that, being in an unfamiliar place just seemed like I was bound to have a panic attack, but everything was a-ok.

Once I got into the venue, I picked a spot by the stage and stood there until the first performer came up. It was awkward for awhile because there wasn’t a lot of people, and I stood there blanking looking at the walls, but as the room filled up and the first performer came on stage, I became a little more comfortable. During the performances, my nerves were at ease, because it was the part of the whole event that I’m used to, which is listening to the performances, getting elbowed in the boob, and ending up behind tall people. At the end of the night, I was supposed to talk to one of the performers for my @ixieday page, but unfortunately, they left early because they had a flight to catch. Nonetheless, they were all amazing, extremely lively, and I would definitely pay to see them again.

So this whole experience wasn’t just me going to a concert, but an opportunity to step way out of my comfort zone. From the car drive to waiting in line, I was anxious, but as expected, I was worrying for nothing. So if you have the time, money, or even courage, to go to a concert by yourself, I would totally do it just for the experience.
