BIOGRAPHY
By Official Site
The Sugar Thieves were born in 2006, in a smoky dive bar in Tempe Arizona. They began as a duo with Mikel Lander and Meridith Moore on guitar and vocals. By adding upright bass (Jeff Naylor), organ & sax (Shea Marshall), and drums (David Libman), they have become one of the hardest working bands around. Over the past seven years they've independently produced and released five albums, and have won the Phoenix Blues Society's "Arizona State Blues Showdown" three times. In 2009, 2010, and 2013, The Sugar Thieves went on to compete in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, where in 2009 they were voted one of the top ten unsigned blues bands in the world, and won the “People’s Choice” award in 2010 and 2013. This summer, The Sugar Thieves traveled to France, where they played the Cahors Blues Festival, along with a slew of other gigs: from clubs and brasseries to markets, a cultural arts center, and even a BBQ joint in Paris. In 2013 alone, The Sugar Thieves have performed in San Felipe (México), all over Southern and Coastal France, Memphis TN, St. Louis MO, Denver CO, Omaha NE, and all over the American Southwest.
This five piece is always on the move, sharing their music with new audiences. They are a perfect mix of American music, with sounds of New Orleans, Memphis, Chicago, and Mississippi. They fuse Blues, Roots, Folk, Gospel, and a little Jazz, to make up one big bowl of Sugar. Their hometown of Phoenix Arizona has dubbed them the "Meat Shakin' Blues Band." The Sugar Thieves are planning their next album "Sugar in the Raw" to be released in 2014. It will be acoustic, and will include many new original tracks by the Thieves. If you haven't seen them yet, don't wait. This group puts on a show-stopping performance that's worth writing home about. Just make sure to hide your sugar.
