Since the start of their journey, Bud Sugar have managed to pack out venues, cause a ruckus at festivals and gain national media coverage due to both their infectious musical compositions and their role in human rights activism. These 5 forward thinkers are fresh back from a road trip in California where they spent weeks busking, playing gigs & heading down to recording studios to catch the vibe.
Bud Sugar is a band where some talk of an afro, up-beat skank. Others claim, ska but not quite ska. Certainly the high speed and manic ukulele is a key component. In their latest song, they play with a more orchestrated sound, blending and fusing brass, strings and drum machines with a funky and relentless bass line and lush west African inspired guitar licks. The vocals are a simple but powerful mix of northern tones and rap flows that switch up in the most unexpected and exciting ways.
