SUGAR JONES
The Push

Austin Arena magazine, April 1995

Sly Stone meets Chicago meets Joe Jackson. Funky, driven horn arrangements add a distinctive flavor to this surprisingly strong first effort . . . but not so surprising, really, considering the players.

Elias Haslinger (tenor & soprano sax), Chris Womack (tenor sax), Miles Sapp (guitar), Alan Uribe (bass & Wonder Bass), Felix Hendrickson (drums), Shane Pitsch (trumpets), Todd Yukomoto (baritone sax), Mike Urdy (percussion) and singer/songwriter Chad Thevenot.

Chad and Miles share most of the songwriting duties, and take production and arrangement credits, the latter being a real accomplishment, as the horn arrangements and solos are impeccable. Thought-provoking songs of love and love lost, race, compassion, introspection and violence, contribute a worldly consciousness to this colorful frontispiece of words and music.
