Bio
The Five Dollar Sugar, of Tulsa, OK, is really something that must be heard, as words can fall short. Setting the stage for a new generation of true musicians, $5 Sugar is putting their trademark "Bluedirt" sound on the map. Blending a wide variety of blues, rock, country, jazz, funk and folk, they bring an unparalleled energy to any ear they touch. Still in their freshman year, The Sugar has already been featured multiple times on 97.5 KMOD, placed 1st in The Oklahoma City Blues Society's International Blues Challenge, and opened for several national acts. Their first full length album, "Joshua Yarbrough & The Five Dollar Sugar," has been chosen to represent The Blues Society of Tulsa as "Best Self-Produced Blues Album." The sophomore release, "Show Band & Revue," brings flavors of jazz, funk, and rock to the already stunning palette of sound.
