British music icons Fuzzbox (originally We've Got a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It) have officially released their first-ever authorised biography, "We Had A Fuzzbox ... And We Used It", chronicling the band's trailblazing journey through the 80s pop and indie scene written by Birmingham author and long-time collaborator Martin Tracey.

Known for their feisty DIY energy and hits like "International Rescue," "Self," and "Pink Sunshine," Fuzzbox remains Britain's most successful all-girl group where the members played their own instruments. The new biography offers a candid, "Eye -opening" look at their meteoric rise, the challenges of a male-dominated industry, and their enduring influence on generations of female -fronted artists.

The book is currently available for purchase on Amazon.

This is a novel about life, death and everything in between.

Suzi says, "It started as a collection of tombstone quotes, but, as I was assembling them all together, it took on a whole different colour and I found myself immersed in a fictional story, connecting 6 students and a professor".

"It was completely unexpected, and I delightedly followed the road wherever it let me".

"My mother always said, 'you are born alone and you die alone', and that my fellow readers, says it all".

Enjoy the psychological journey.
