I'll never conform...because they told me not to!

About Me


(DISCLAIMER)
Uptight Sugar may cause such side effects as: Type 2 Diabetes, tremors, shortness of breath, fainting, temporary to permanent bouts of insanity, uncontrolled bladder evacuation, delusions of grandure, bird flu, heart murmur, erectile disfunction, polio, and almost every sexually transmitted disease known to man. Please consult your doctor to make sure you are physically healthy enough to attend an Uptight Sugar show in your area! Uptight Sugar is not responsible for any complications which may result from the further reading of this bio!
(DISCLAIMER)
Uptight Sugar started with a conversation between singer/songwriter David Hamilton, and Manager John Malm Jr. It wasn't long after that David began doing live performances as a solo artist under the new name. After a successful string of shows, they decided to unleash Uptight Sugar as a full band, adding drummer (Tito Pablo), and the dynamic duo of lead guitarist (Bob Awsome), and bassist (Willie Fignog)!
Using piles of effects boxes, and a wide range of musical influences, the group has been reaching for a totally unique sound! Uptight Sugar has evolved into a psychedelic/pop rock hybrid with a blues twist, and they show no signs of stopping! With each new song they raise the bar just a bit higher!
Uptight Sugar is on a celestial quest to find the true music lovers of the world, and they would like to welcome all into the congregation....
