Susto

Susto, an alternative indie rock band hailing from Charleston, South Carolina, has carved out a unique niche in the music world with their introspective songwriting and distinctive Southern sound. The brainchild of singer-songwriter Justin Osborne, Susto was born out of his experiences traveling in Cuba, where he encountered the term "susto," which refers to a folk illness. This concept resonated with Osborne, inspiring him to channel the emotional complexities of life, heartache, and existential ponderings into his music.

Since their formation, Susto has captured the hearts of fans with a blend of Americana, psychedelic pop, and alt-country influences, offering an array of thought-provoking and emotionally rich tracks. Their notable releases include "Ever Since I Lost My Mind," a profound exploration of personal change and mental health, and "Life Is Suffering," which delves into the more somber aspects of existence with a poetic grace. Always evolving, the band presents live versions of their music with albums like "Rogue Acoustic (Live from the Royal American, Charleston, Sc / 2020)," showcasing the raw energy and engaging storytelling that define their live performances. In a blend of narrative lyricism and soulful melodies, Susto continues to be an emblem of contemporary Southern rock and a poignant voice in the indie music scene.
