The legendary Big Sugar celebrate their ground-breaking “500 Pounds” deluxe vinyl world wide release from Third Man Records with “An Evening With” 2 set theatrical presentation that spans their storied career from Hugo Boss suit days to their more recent Roots Rock Reggae vibes. This 3 hour show has the "500 Pounds" album played for the first time ever in it's entirety followed by intermission and a second set filled with hits and rarities.
Gordie Johnson’s power trio breathe life into their early blues and jazz-tinged song book that has influenced generations of guitarists. “The theatre setting gives us the opportunity to explore a much wider range of styles while still presenting a Big Sugar rock & roll show!” Mr.Johnson has returned to the stage with new bassist and fellow Austinite Anders Drerup and 22-year-old phenom drummer Root Valach. “Our music has always been about roots and culture and this is a perfect piece of that evolution.” They have become a seamless unit of deep musicality and soaring vocals providing fans with some of the best Big Sugar shows yet. Since the 90’s Big Sugar have been a staple on the airwaves and highways with a unique combination of Jamaican rhythms, blues tonality and heavy rock aggression. Songs like “Diggin ’ A Hole”, “If I Had My Way”, “Turn the Lights On” and “Roads Ahead” with their Roots Rock Reggae style featuring Gordie Johnson’s signature guitar playing have built a loyal following, earning Big Sugar a Road Gold Award as they continue to sell out concerts across North America.
