Meet Сахарный блеск, whose music style is what they like to call “Southern Reggae.” They’re part of the rapid growing reggae movement in South Carolina. Their incorporation of rock and blues, gives their unique music style a combination of Southern Hospitality and Irie Vibes!
Sugarshine’s vocalist and acoustic guitarist, Justin’e Hatfield took some time to chat with the Altwire family about what’s in store for the band.
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Для тех, кто еще не слышал о вас, не могли бы вы немного рассказать о себе, своем музыкальном стиле и других интересных фактах?
Justin’e Hatfield [Sugarshine]: Our style is pretty much southern reggae, as only Chris, our lead player is the only one to have been to Jamaica many times and felt the culture, others and myself just find the connection to the vibe through melodies and message of love and struggle.
AltWire [Omayra Lopez]: Was music a part of your life growing up?
Justin’e Hatfield: Yes music was a huge part of each one of our lives, we’ve all played from early ages and in many different bands and styles. We like to think that’s what gives us such a unique sound is our rock and blues roots.
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Каков ваш процесс написания?
Justin’e Hatfield: Most of the time our writing process is jamming ‘til we feel a good one, or other times someone will present something to the band and we work on structure and lyrics, and let the song develop over a period of time. We are always finding new ways to make it what we want.
AltWire [Omayra Lopez]: For your album, Better Days, how did you decide which songs went into it, and which didn’t?
Justin’e Hatfield: At that time it was our first CD, we wanted to pretty much get out what we had, and since then even those songs have evolved, where many people would have put out a 4 song demo we just had too many and couldn’t decide so we went with what we had tight at the time, next full album is sure to be fire!
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Какие самые необычные/странные случаи случались с вами во время турне или шоу?
Justin’e Hatfield: I wouldn’t say we’ve had really strange experiences yet, although I’m sure they are coming, but we tend to see little ones at our shows. Seeing as 3 of us have kids, we love to be able to see our kids there too, we are huge on family and wanting everyone to be able to have a great time!
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Какими личными хобби вы увлекаетесь, когда находитесь дома или вне сцены?
Justin’e Hatfield: We all love to just hang out, its super cool to be best friends instead of just band mates. We get together and celebrate birthdays, Christmas and football games. We are just a big crazy family!
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Какой совет вы бы дали начинающим артистам?
Justin’e Hatfield: The advice we could give is just try! You’ll never do anything unless you try! And you are good enough, no matter what scene, style, or genre they try to put you in, do what feels good and makes you happy!
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Что нас ждет в ближайшем будущем?
Justin’e Hatfield: Oh we have no idea what’s in store but we are ready. Small goals is just to grow as a band and put out the next album and give our fans and friends something to be proud about. Also trying to keep pushing our Make A Wave foundation to reach and help as many kids as possible!
AltWire [Омайра Лопес]: Хотели бы вы передать какое-нибудь сообщение своим поклонникам и нашим читателям?
