Suzanne Rhatigan - Career

Career

She moved to London in the early 1980s and found work as a session singer for Stock, Aitken and Waterman Records, before embarking on a solo career, recording her debut album with Fred Maher in 1992, To Hell With Love, which was released the following year. For some time in the early 1990s, she was going out with the actor Craig Charles. During this period, she appeared in an episode of cult sci-fi TV series Red Dwarf (Season 4, Episode 1: Camille), in which Charles starred. In 1992, she released a solo album, To Hell With Love, for which Charles co-wrote some of the songs and provided backing vocals. The company distributing the album, Imago, went bankrupt shortly after its release, interrupting her career. She re-emerged in 1995 with the punk pop trio Rhatigan who had a lengthy residency at London's 12 Bar Club on Denmark Street. The band released two albums and a handful of singles/EPs during the late 1990s and early 2000s. In early 2013, Suzanne guested on the "Sisters of St. Anthony" single by Jack Hayter (ex-Hefner), released on Audio Antihero.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)

    He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

    Like the old soldier of the ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Goodbye.
    Douglas MacArthur (1880–1964)
