Suzy Q was a Canadian studio-based music project developed by Jerry Cucuzzella, showcasing female vocalists such as Michelle Mills, Angie Vileno, and Carol Jiani. The act gained recognition primarily for their song "Get on Up and Do It Again", which achieved positions on two distinct Billboard charts.
Career
In 1981, the track "Get on Up and Do It Again" was recorded with Carol Jiani providing vocals, climbing to number 4 on the Billboard Club chart and reaching number 64 on the R&B chart. Later that year, featuring Michelle Mills as the lead singer, the double A-side "With Your Love"/"Tonight" attained the 12th spot on the Billboard Club chart.
Suzy Q produced a rendition of "Harmony" in 1985, a composition by Geoff Bastow and Giorgio Moroder. The following year, in 1986, they released the Italo-disco/Hi-NRG club track "Can't Live Without Your Love," written by Giovanni D'Orazio and Antonio Bentivegna, with Angie Vileno on vocals; this single reached number 19 on the Billboard Club chart.
From 1987 through 1989, Suzy Q created multiple Eurobeat/Hi-NRG songs under J.C. Records before ceasing activities.
