She has also been known to accompany Mascis on solo gigs. Thorpe has recorded with Devendra Banhart, Mark Gardner, and Grand Mal, among others, and was co-writer/producer of Grasshopper & the Golden Crickets' Orbit of Eternal Grace.

As an MFA candidate at Mills College, in Oakland, California, she is studying electronic music and media with Chris Brown, Maggi Payne and John Bischoff, and creative improvisation with Joelle Leandre and Fred Frith. Currently Thorpe is on tour with thenumber46, a flute and feedback duo with multi-media artist Philip White. Visit http://www.myspace.com/thenumber46 or www.suzannethorpe.com for moreinformation.
AAAND... *one more time!*
the pretty panicks press is a newly formed small-press that prints rock and roll compositions, articles, and artwork materials.
the press' first large scale project is a series of twelve postcards featuring rock compositions on the front sides and brief artists' statements (or bios) on the backs. the postcards will study how rock music is made, how that process varies from artist to artist, and how rock composition is similar and/or different from the way that other forms of music are composed.
*if you would like to receive a copy of this postcard, please email your mailing address to
