“Sadness, loneliness, sex. Is that all I have to talk about?”

First gaining notoriety from a series of frenetic dance‐party live performances in 2011‐2012, Mike Clark and the Sugar Sounds deliver a style steeped in rock’n’roll and suffused with garage soul, showcasing a supergroup’s worth of Colorado blues, folk and rock artists in their prime: Iniaiah Lujan (guitar/Haunted Windchimes), Marc Benning (bass/34 Satellite), Alex Koshak (percussion/The Flumps), Grant Sabin (trumpet/The Grant Sabin Band), and Ian Bourgal (sax/The Changing Colors).
Crowd favorites like “I Can’t Shake It” and “Losing My Cool” reference the greats of soul and rock’n’roll, from Otis Redding to Roy Orbison and Creedence Clearwater Revival, but “it definitely doesn’t sound like any of that, ” Clark says. “It sounds like something completely new, but it will remind you of all the best old songs. It’s all about girls, sadness and heartbreak, but it gets people to dance.”
