Charleston-based SUSTO (pronounced “soos-toh”) premieres the new video for their single “Jah Werx” via Relix Magazine. View the video HERE and share it HERE. Relix explains that “the band described the inspiration of the song, citing the great influence of Bob Marley. They particularly noted that ‘Jah’ is the Rasta word for God and ‘Jah Works’ is the Rasta term for ‘God is good’ or ‘God is working,’ which led to this song title. ‘For our song ‘Jah Werx,’ we took this phrase and reinterpreted it in terms of our own reality and understanding of the universe.’”

The band continues to crisscross North America, touring constantly in support of their new album & I’m Fine Today  (out now on Missing Piece/Caroline). Bandleader Justin Osborne sat down with Billboard in May to discuss their growing career HERE. See below for a complete tour itinerary.

The five-piece band has made a name for themselves in recent years playing high profile festivals including Hangout, Austin City Limits, Stagecoach and AmericanaFest along with upcoming dates at Pickathon and Hopscotch and opening slots with The Lumineers, Band of Horses and The Head and The Heart. Their first US headline tour took place in the winter/spring of 2017, with sold out shows in San Francisco, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Washington, DC, Charleston, Savannah, Chapel Hill and Nashville.
