I just had the opportunity to review the most recent release, Thirsty For Your Love, by The Sugar Darlings and it's a playful blend of R&B, soul, rock and funk. Opening with Why, Miche Love Dennery, on vocal, leads the way with a powerful horn barrage including Kaven Jalbert on tenor and bari sax, Paul Lucyk on guitar and vocal, Danick Tardif on drums, Neil Robinson on bass and Clerel Djamen and Janelle Lucyk on backing vocals. Rocker, Grow Up has a cool R&B beat but it's pure radio pop. Dennery on vocal shows real poise, Jalbert lays down a real nice tenor solo, and Paul L lays in a solid guitar solo of his own. Funky Darling is my favorite track on the release with hot rhythm by Robinson, Tardif and Paul, and Jalbert sails on tenor before returning to the bottom on bari adding that heavy noise we all love. To Be Free is a cool bluesy track with arpeggiated chords by Paul L and soulful sax work by Jalbert. Dennery on vocal sings the melody as her showcase on the release and Paul gets the chance to lay it out there as well. Very nice. Wrapping the release is funky rocker, Oh Lord with solid rhythm guitar by Paul and smokey sax by Jalbert, and Janelle and Clerel singing great backing to Dennery's lead. Solid closer.
