The Superjesus is an iconic Australian rock band known for their compelling blend of melodic riffs and powerful vocals. Formed in Adelaide in 1994, initially under the name Hell's Kitchen, the band achieved significant success following the release of their debut EP, "Eight Step Rail," which garnered them national attention and led to the winning of three ARIA Music Awards. The band's line-up, most notably led by charismatic frontwoman Sarah McLeod, has undergone changes throughout the years, but the energy and passion of their music have remained steadfast.

The band's discography boasts several high-impact releases, shaping the landscape of '90s and early 2000s Australian rock. Albums such as "Sumo," "Jet Age," and "Rock Music" firmly established The Superjesus as a mainstay in the Aussie rock scene, blending gritty guitars with introspective lyrics. Their success was punctuated by their live performances, memorable for their raw energy and connection with the audience, which was encapsulated in the "SUMO 20 (LIVE)" album. Despite a hiatus, the band returned with fresh material, like "The Setting Sun" and the probing track "The Impossible," maintaining their relevance and devoted fanbase over the years. The Superjesus continues to be celebrated for their contributions to the genre and their ability to evolve while holding true to the rock sounds that originally propelled them to fame.
