​Named after  a traditional foot stomping fiddle tune,  Sugar in the Gourd is every bit as edgy and fun, but  has the added depth of  beautifully constructed original songs that encompass topics from trains, to drinking, to love, redemption, all the way to  a conversation with God. The four women who comprise this delightful Americana./Roots style band,  have combined their diverse backgrounds and songwriting talents  to  form a sound that is as unique as it is captivating. You’ll hear beautiful three part vocal harmonies along with fine musicianship on violin, guitar, mandolin, upright bass and banjo. Whether they’re performing an old blues, an original swing tune or an Appalachian  style  murder ballad,
it’s all Americana...

new and old at the same time, and irresistible.
