Fronted by the sassy Hazel Sim (aka Miss Sugar T) - a natural R'n'B vocalist with sex appeal beyond her 25 years, whose credits include PP Arnold and Matt Bianco, the band boasts such musicians as: Andy Ross, one of the UK's finest R'n'B saxmen, with experiences ranging from Chaka Khan and Lou Rawls to Jamie Cullum and Michael Buble; Adam Phillips - top drawer session guitarist who's recorded with Rod Stewart, Lionel Richie, Cher and countless other chart topping bands, although his first love is playing and singing the blues; drummer Micky Moody, son of British Blues legend and original Whitesnake member Micky Moody, who frequently guests with the Swells. The winning combination of hard swinging, tight arrangements, irresistible danceability and tongue in cheek humour make Sugar T and the Swells a hard act to beat...
