ACM’s Top Vocal Duo. Listen tp Sugarland talk about their European shows, their live shows, Kristian’s scruff on the beard and the theory of evolution, their choice of singing What I’d Give and trying to introduce their sound to and ever expanding new audience, and writing for the new CD. GAC host Suzanne Alexander interviews Sugarland, the Top Vocal Dup at this year’s 44th Annual ACM Awards Show.

The Tennessean provided some great pictures of Sugarland rehearsing for Academy of Country Music Awards.

They are going to be playing What I’d Give tonight…a big surprise since most thought they would be playing their current hit single It Happens.  Jennifer Nettles will be playing Mandolin tonight and Kristian Bush will be giving us some great lead licks on the electric guitar…if the rumors are true.  Sugarland wants to show the world that they are great entertainers as well as great and versatile musicians.

 

I saw them at the 40 Watt in Athens Georgia in February and Jennifer Nettles played the Bass and Piano when debuting their new songs. Kristian Bush even branched out to the Bass. I think this is going to be what you expect when you see Sugarland perform live…expect the unexpected and expect to be blown away by their amazing talent.  Kenny Chesney even reported that he thought they would beat him out in the Entertainer of the Year…sometime.  Maybe not this year, but they are poised to be at the top of the country music industry for many years to come.  Click Here to View the Tennessean pictures of the Rehearsal
