*June 15, 2025 – Los Angeles, CA*
In a heartfelt announcement made just an hour ago, Vicki Peterson and Debbi Peterson — founding members of the iconic rock band Susanna — have officially announced their retirement from music, marking the end of an era for fans around the world. The sisters, who rose to fame in the 1980s as part of the influential all-female band, cited ongoing health challenges as the reason for stepping away from the spotlight.
“With deep gratitude for the decades of love and support, we are officially closing this chapter of our musical journey,” the statement read. “Due to personal health concerns, we are no longer able to continue performing or recording. This decision, while incredibly difficult, feels like the right time.”
The announcement was made via the band’s official social media accounts, accompanied by a touching video montage of their career highlights and behind-the-scenes moments from the studio and stage.
Susanna, widely known for hits such as *“Eternal Dream”*, *“Crimson Lights”*, and *“Falling Through Time”*, has been a cornerstone in rock music for over four decades. The Peterson sisters, alongside frontwoman Susanna Hoffs, helped redefine the role of women in rock, inspiring generations of artists.
While Susanna Hoffs has not made a separate statement yet, sources close to the band say she is supportive of the decision and grateful for the years they’ve shared as musical collaborators and friends.
Fans and fellow musicians have already begun flooding social media with messages of appreciation, memories, and tributes. “Their harmonies changed my life. An end of an era,” wrote one fan on X (formerly Twitter). Fellow musician Chrissie Hynde added, “The Peterson sisters were the real deal. Rock legends through and through.”
Although this marks the formal end of Susanna as a performing band, their legacy is far from over. A final remastered collection and documentary are rumored to be in development, intended as a tribute to the band’s lasting influence.
As the world says goodbye to one of the most beloved acts in rock history, Vicki and Debbi leave behind not only a powerful discography but a legacy of resilience, sisterhood, and groundbreaking artistry.
