About...

Suris are Lindsey and David Mackie. Memorable musical arrangements back Lindsey’s rich, textured vocals, telling unusual and unsettling stories with atmospheric and soulful orchestration. However smooth the music might seem, there is always something more subversive under the surface.

​

Lindsey and Dave’s musical collaboration began in their early marriage. They met as students at the University of East Anglia at a gig where they were both playing – Lindsey fronting The Clynics, a Siouxsie/Blondie fusion and Dave playing guitar in punk band Capitalist Music.

​

After early interest from Ensign Records and Polygram, Lindsey became pregnant. So began another stage in this couple’s unconventional approach to making music. Two children later, the Mackies remain doggedly self-sufficient, instinctive and passionately committed to the song. They finish off each other’s musical sentences, are multi- instrumentalists, arrangers and producers.
