Episode Details

Hailing from rustic Darke County, Ohio, Shannon Clark & the Sugar  weave together heartfelt emotions with a distinctive flair to create a  sound that can only be described as Midwest Americana Soul. This family  band writes and performs their original music about a personal loss,  struggles, and the human condition. Apple News raves, “The raw emotion  of Shannon’s vocal delivery exposes the bittersweet beauty of his  lyrics.” Husband and wife duo, Shannon and Brittany Clark joined the  Warped Tour to represent Ohio in the mid-2000s. Soon after, tragedy hit  the family with the loss of their 2nd daughter. For a time the music  stopped. Imminently, Shannon & Brittany’s creative songwriting would  become the healing tool that brought them together and revived the  band. When their oldest daughter, Navie joined in 2019 as a  vocalist/instrumentalist, they began experimenting with a new sound and  Shannon Clark & the Sugar was born.
