SOUNDSTAGE Sugarland

During this sensational hour, Sugarland presents a versatile set that gains momentum with each song. Airing on the UA Channel, Saturday, July 18th at 9:00 p.m. by Colleen Greer

Jennifer Nettles’ voice can hold its own in any setting, but exceeds expectations alongside partner Kristian Bush’s mandolin strumming at SOUNDSTAGE’s Grainger Studio. During this hour, Sugarland presents a set that gains momentum with each song. “Joey” is heartbreakingly sincere; the tongue-and-cheek “Steve Earle” reveals strong, twangy vocals; and broken-down acoustics give “Genevieve” a more traditional country sound.

The duo’s forte is to transition effortlessly from energetic pop songs to heartfelt, soulful ballads without skipping a beat. During their set, they present older classics like “Baby Girl” and even venture into covers of R.E.M to pay homage to shared Atlanta roots.
