You’ll not hear anything artificially sweet in the incredible sounds crafted by Shannon Clark and the Sugar. A family affair, Clark and his wife Brittany, daughter Navie, and cousin Joey are all integral to creating music that is complex and full of honest, thoughtful lyrics. Adding to this is the rich sound of “blood harmony,” a type of harmony that is said to be a unique kind of harmony that can only be created by those who are related to one another “by blood.”
