Biography
Susan Pesklevits and Terry Jacks met in the band Powerline. They later married and formed the Poppy Family in 1968. With guitarist Craig McCaw and percussionist Satwan Singh, the duo's third single, "Which Way You Goin' Billy," became a hit in the U.S. and their native Canada, selling over two million copies. The group recorded three albums in the early '70s: That's Where I Went Wrong and Which Way You Goin' Billy in 1970, and Poppy Seeds in 1971. Terry and Susan were divorced by 1973, however, and both began solo careers. Susan released Dream (1976), Ghosts (1980), and Forever (1982), but Terry became more successful when his "Seasons in the Sun" single went platinum in Canada (selling more than 150,000 units). His albums include Seasons in the Sun (1974), Y'Don't Fight the Sea (1976), Pulse (1983), and Into the Past (1989). Susan Jacks died on April 25, 2022 in Surrey, British Columbia after a long battle with kidney disease; she was 72 years old. ~ John Bush, Rovi
