The bars and nightclubs might be temporarily shut down, but that doesn't mean you still can't dance and sweat to the steamy new video for 'Suda.' The Curb Records artist first came onto the pop scene in 2016 with her Top 10 Radio Disney hit 'Go Steady' which has amassed more than 1 million career streams to date. Soon after, she moved to Miami to work with producer, songwriter, and frequent Pitbull collaborator IAmChino. It was during these sessions that 'Suda' was born, and the steamy dance-worthy track quickly caught the attention of Pitbull himself. Pfirrman and Pitbull confidently trade vocals on the track seamlessly alternating between English and Spanish. Pitbull is also highly prominent in the new music video for the single, as the two let loose in a Miami nightclub.

This juxtaposition between vulnerable storytelling and pop overtones is one of St. South's greatest strengths.

Heather Orth stars as mysterious opium den proprietress Princess Puffer in Foothill Music Theatre's new production of Rupert Holmes' rollicking musical comedy a?oeThe Mystery of Edwin Drood.a??
