About Me

Melodically aggressive, intimately honest and fueled by pure emotions, Sugar Glyder is constantly trying to interject, what they hope will be, fresh and innovative sounds and styles. Forming in late 2003 near the small town of Waxhaw, located around the rural South Charlotte area of North Carolina. Originally forming when Chris Rigo (guitar, miscellaneous sounds) and Daniel Howie (vocals, keyboard, synth, guitar) began playing together in high school. Soon after Cory Lambert (drums) and Miss Emily Aoyagi (bass) were added to round out the rhythm section. With this solid lineup, Sugar Glyder was formed. They are currently based mainly out of the Charlotte, North Carolina are.In late 2003, Learning to Burn was released. It featured a mere 3 songs but was enough to gain some radio air play as well as numerous fans. With the release of Live Like the Last (2004), Sugar Glyder showed a slightly more mature and experimental side by writing more dynamic and interesting material. Live Like the Last was received well by the local scene and more fans were born.Sugar Glyder has just finished and released there new CD, "The Unsaid and the Obvious." Expanding while experimenting Sugar Glyder has crafted a CD they can finally be proud of. Featuring an array of instruments like the xylophone, synthesizer and toy pianos, Sugar Glyder hopes to add to the texture of music out there right now without exactly rewriting the book.The Unsaid and the Obvious is out NOW!!!

Sounds Like: "My impression of Sugar Glyder left me thinking that these guys were crazy! They gave off great vibes which the crowd definitely picked up on. At the end of their set, the crowd was yelling "One more song, one more song! A distinctive experimental/indie/post-progressive sound that reminded me of an odd combination of Muse, Acid Mothers Temple, dredg, and the Blues Traveler. Extraordinary!" --(Jesse Bikman--Nineronline.com)"Sugar Glyder has somehow managed to capture all of the great things that make up the indie rock genre and then add a little something to it which makes it very hard to step away from. One thing is certain, Sugar Glyder definitely deserves more attention than they are getting." –-(www.lostinreview.com)---------------------------------- -------------------------"Sugar Glyder, on the other hand, has all the tools for the genre and then some. They bring talent and dedication to their music. It's only a matter of time before this band will be picked up by a label." -(www.skylinepress.net)---------------"Charlotte-based rockers Sugar Glyder have been honing their writing and playing chops in the area for the past few years. It shows." -[Divakar Shukla (106.5)]---------------------------------------------------- ---------------------"However, the sound these guys and girl make is not ordinary – it’s rather extraordinary." -[The University Times (UNC Charlotte)]--------------
