The band is doubling down on the Power Trio format after the past whirlwind year that saw the Third Man Records vinyl release of their influential 500 Pounds record, a Jack White cover of Big Sugar’s ‘Ride Like Hell’ and an extensive theater tour including dates with Jack White, Warren Haynes, The Black Crowes and Island Exodus with Gov’t Mule.
Since the 90’s, Big Sugar have been a staple on the airwaves and highways with their heavy soul-driven sound, combined with socially conscious lyrics and a distinct reggae influence. Songs like “Diggin’ A Hole”, “If I Had My Way”, “Turn the Lights On”, and “Roads Ahead” (featuring Gordie Johnson’s signature guitar playing) have built a loyal following, earning Big Sugar a Road Gold Award as they continue to sell out concerts across North America.
