THE SUPERJESUS ARE ONE OF THE BEST AUSTRALIAN ROCK BANDS TO OF EMERGED IN THE PAST DECADE. THEY FORMED IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA IN 1994, WHEN SINGER AND SONGWRITER SARAH MCLEOD DECIDED TO HAVE HER OWN BAND. WITH THE HELP OF HER GUITAR TEACHER CHRIS TENNENT WHO AGREED TO JOIN "TEMPORAILY", SARAH FOUND STUART RUDD AND PAUL BERRYMAN TO JOIN THE NEW BAND - KNOWN BACK THEN AS "HELL'S KITCHEN".
FOR CHRIS TEMPORARY BECAME PERMANENT -EVEN THOUGH HE HAD NEVER WANTED TO BE A PART OF ANY BAND. BUT THEN AFTER 18 MONTHS OF REHEARSALS AND NOT ONE GIG, THE SUPERJESUS (AS THEY CHANGED THEIR NAME) RELEASED THEIR FIRST EP "EIGHT STEP RAIL".

THE SUCCESS OF THIS EP SENT THEM TO ATLANTA WHEN THEIR NEW RECORD COMPANY WARNER MUSIC WANTED THE BAND TO RECORD THEIR FIRST FULL BLOWN ALBUM. PRODUCED BY MATT SERLETIC "SUMO" THE SUPERJESUS' DEBUT ALBUM BECAME A MONSTER HIT AND INCLUDED THEIR HIT SINGLES "SATURATION", "DOWN AGAIN" AND "NOW AND THEN".
SINCE THEN THE SUPERJESUS HAVE BEEN NOMINATED FOR AND HAVE WON A FEW ARIA AWARDS SUCH AS "BEST NEW TALENT", "BEST DEBUT SINGLE" (FOR SHUT MY EYES) AND "BEST ROCK RECORD" (FOR SUMO).

DESPITE THEIR SUCCESS THE BAND HAVE ALSO HAD THEIR FAIR SHARE OF BAD LUCK. IN 1999 THE BAND LEAD GUITARIST AND MAIN SONGWRITER, CHRIS TENNENT LEFT THE BAND. THE REMAINING BAND MEMBERS TOOK A SHORT BREAK AND RETURNED IN 2000 WITH A NEW ALBUM AND LEAD GUITARIST/SONGWRITER/BACKUP VOCALIST: TIM HENWOOD FROM MELBOURNE. HENWOOD ALSO LEFT THE BAND BY 2002, AND FORMED HIS OWN BAND 'THE ANDROIDS'. AFTER ALMOST BREAKING UP AFTER THIS THE SUPERJESUS REFORMED AS A TRIO IN 2003.

AFTER ALL THAT EVERYTHING APPEARS TO BE RUNNING BETTER THAN EVER FOR THE SUPERJESUS, WHO RETURNED WITH THEIR NEW SINGLE "STICK TOGETHER" AND ALBUM "ROCK MUSIC" IN 2003. SURELY THEY HAVE A LOT LEFT IN THEM AFTER ALL THE DRAMA, AND ARE IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL!
