Who is Noelle Sucks?

Noelle Sucks defies easy categorization, blending indie, shoegaze, pop, and rock into an emotional soundscape. Born into a musically talented family, Noelle found her own voice after experiencing a brush with death at 13 during a major surgery. Growing up with extremely spiritual views from her parents, the absence of any heavenly visions during that near-death experience challenged her long-held beliefs and transformed her perspective on life.

Recovery from her surgery in her teens sidelined her from school but sparked her creativity as she started conceptualizing music videos for existing songs and discovering her love for editing home-made videos. This passion led her to film school and, ultimately, back to music after a significant breakup at age 23 inspired her first song. She describes her early work as "catching up," filling in gaps from her years spent in film and other pursuits.

Noelle's “Out of Orbit” EP (2022) dove into the complexities from emotions stemming from of a friend-group breakup, featuring connections nurtured at Emo Nite, an event that has now come full circle with her signing to Emo Nite's new label, Graveboy Records. Her debut single "Ugly Ugly" releases on September 22, marking a significant milestone in a life marked by second chances and self-discovery.
