Willie Sugarcapps
The dynamic collective of Will Kimbrough, Anthony Crawford & Savana Lee of Sugarcane Jane, Grayson Capps, and Corky Hughes.
Birthed from a series of casual Southern Alabama songwriter-in-the-round jam sessions, Willie Sugarcapps is an organic outgrowth of the chemistry between five distinct musicians. Within these sessions, among the pot luck dishes served and a stage built to resemble a back porch, a connection brewed between Kimbrough, Crawford, Lee, Capps, and Hughes. Individually, these musicians have written, recorded, and toured throughout the US, with the likes of Jimmy Buffett, Emmylou Harris, Neil Young, Kate Campbell, Dwight Yoakam, and Steve Winwood, to name a few. The collaboration of such songwriting expertise inspired a repertoire of material that became their 2013 self-titled debut album, which was awarded “Americana Album Of The Year” by the Independent Music Association. Willie Sugarcapps went on to build a solid following, and performed on such lauded programs as Woodsongs Old-Time Radio Hour, NPR’s Mountain Stage and Music City Roots. They released their sophomore effort, Paradise Right Here, in April of 2016, recorded at FAME Studio in Muscle Shoals via Baldwin County Public Records to rave reviews. The desire for more recordings and tour dates is a common conversation amongst the band, much to the desire of their loyal and devoted fanbase.
Recorded at FAME in Muscle Shoals, this four song EP includes never released before, My Gal as well as unreleased versions of Magnolia Springs, Faded Neighborhood, and Find the Good. All performed live around one mic. Produced by Willie Sugarcapps. Engineered by John Gifford. Released 2014.
