Sugar Lime Blue

FULL BIO:  

Sugar Lime Blue is not just a band—it’s an experience. For over a decade, this genre-defying group has been pioneering a sound they call Cosmic Cowgirl—a soulful fusion of Americana, blues, folk, country, and jam band grooves that transcends traditional labels. With a reputation for electrifying live shows and heartfelt recordings, Sugar Lime Blue has established itself as a cornerstone of the modern roots music scene.

Sugar Lime Blue’s music has been celebrated by fans and critics alike, praised for its authenticity, versatility, and emotional depth. Publications like Indie Band Guru describe their sound as “a reflection of the blue-collar American soul,” while Skope Magazine highlights their “funky, fresh rhythm, dynamite hooks, and stellar instrumentation.” The band’s seamless blend of influences, from blues to funk to reggae, creates a timeless vibe, earning comparisons to the best of 60s and 70s rock with a modern twist.

At the heart of their evolution is the Cosmic Cowgirl sound—a free-spirited blend of cosmic jams, classic storytelling, and country-infused rock. It’s a genre that embodies the wild, untamed essence of the open road, with music that is equal parts earthy and ethereal.

Having performed nearly 1,000 shows and shared stages with luminaries like Umphrey’s McGee, Moe, The Wood Brothers, Ween, and Buddy Guy, Sugar Lime Blue has proven time and again that they are a force to be reckoned with. Their live performances are transformative, feeding off the energy of their fans and delivering unforgettable moments of connection. As Midwest Record puts it, “This is not a trip down memory lane but a revisit to when everyone wanted to make hit records that didn’t sell out.”

If you’re looking for music that moves you—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—Sugar Lime Blue is the band for you. Whether in the studio or on stage, they bring passion, creativity, and a sense of inclusivity that keeps fans coming back for more. Sugar Lime Blue isn’t just making music; they’re creating memories, one note at a time.

"With no loose ends or ragged seams, this band brings back late 60s jamming with a belting front gal leading a crew that cooks. Sounding like a lot of period records might have sounded if everyone wasn't recording head tracks while high, there's a lasting essence to this that will recast the past and find that it doesn't live up to this present. Not a trip down memory lane, just a revisit to when everyone wanted to make hit records that didn't sell out. Great fun for boomers and millenials alike (that they'll probably be listening to together in the same living room)" - Chris Spector, Midwest Record (May 21, 2019)

"Sugar Lime Blue.....might just trip you back to the 1970's with their ultracool retro vibes, a musical melting pot that oozes a unique blend of country, rock, blues and jazz.....but also expect to be surprised by a group that's practically impossible to label."

“Like a black crow perched on a lonesome Southern wire, Sugar Lime Blue compel attention. ....On the road in the aftermath of their well-contoured new album, “Move That Earth,” Sugar Lime Blue come packed with new songs. They wisely blend Southern roots originals with clever covers.. Country in nature yet more attuned to folk and rock’s jam band element, Sugar Lime Blue sweeten with soul for a mix that blends rhythm with roots. Add a touch of mystery. Spin tight grooves and Sugar Lime Blue results in Southern rock finery.”- Tom Netherland, Bristol's Herald Courier (Oct 01, 2015)
