Duo Country US originaire d'Atlanta (Georgie) et composé de
Jennifer Nettles et Kristen Hall.
Sugarland,
the platinum-selling contemporary country act, began as a trio of songwriters
from the Atlanta area, each of whom had enjoyed some level of renown as a solo
country artist. Lead singer and songwriter Jennifer
Nettles had previously fronted Soul Miner's Daughter, and her gospel
background and deep soul approach to country music made her an ideal frontperson
for the trio. Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Kristian Bush had formed half
of the critically acclaimed duo Billy Pilgrim (along with Andrew Hyra), which
had also released a pair of albums. Songwriter Kristen Hall had already released
two solo albums on Windham Hill Records. The three musicians came together in
2002 and independently released Premium Quality Tunes, an EP of demo recordings
(available online or at Sugarland shows), later that year.
After building a buzz with their live performances, Sugarland signed with
Mercury Nashville and released a two-song single ("Baby Girl" b/w "Stand Back
Up") in early 2004. Twice the Speed of Life, their multi-platinum debut album
featuring production by Garth Fundis, was released the same year. At the end of
2005, Hall left the group and resumed her solo career. A second full-length
record, Enjoy the Ride, appeared in 2006 and proved to be a huge success,
garnering attention in both pop and country quarters. For 2008's Love on the
Inside, the band's remaining members successfully lobbied Mercury Nashville to
let them co-produce their own album and record in Georgia instead of Music City.
The resulting album was the most organic of Sugarland's three records to date,
and it spawned three chart-topping singles as a result.
Sugarland truly became superstars in 2009. The year yielded them platinum status
for Love on the Inside; a prime-time network television special called Live on
the Inside (which resulted in a live album of the same name); Grammy Awards for
Best Country Song and Best Country Performance; and, finally, their first
Christmas recording, Gold and Green, which featured new holiday-themed originals
as well as more traditional fare.
The duo's fourth studio album, The Incredible Machine, influenced by the so-called
"steampunk movement" in science fiction circles, arrived in 2010. Propelled by
the Top 20 pop hit "Stuck Like Glue," the album quickly went platinum. Several
tours followed, as did Nettles'
marriage and pregnancy in 2012. In 2013, with the band on hiatus, Bush released
the solo single "Love or Money." Nettles also released a single that same year,
and followed up with her own solo album, That Girl, early in 2014. Nettles and Bush
announced their reunion at the Country Music Association Awards in 2017,
releasing the new single "Still the Same" in December of that year.
