Super Saturated Sugar Strings Band - July 21, 2012 at Uniontown


Band from Anchorage Alaska to play at the Dahmen barn on July 21, 2012.


The SSSS are a unique combination in the fact that their sound is as widespread as their backgrounds. Composed of a native South Carolinian, Alaskan, Coloradan, and Pennsylvanian, they all came into music via different routes. All ear musicians at heart, the three girls pursued classical music, and Carlyle was influenced greatly by the Mississippi blues. Combine these diverse backgrounds with a desire to create beautiful music, and you get some unique and lovely sounds.

Together, their sound melds, like all of their backgrounds, and captures influences from folk, rock, blues, classical, nature, gardening, and all things intensely beautiful. While seemingly clichéd, the truth about what makes SSSS so great is that they genuinely enjoy playing with one another. It's so rare to find four people whose personalities and musical styles (while strikingly different) blend so well. The pure joy of playing bleeds off the stage and into the crowd and the energy feels as good as the music sounds.”
