SoNiC SUgAr and the sweetness - 2011: Singer, songwriter, Christopher Baumgart is busy working on several new song projects; one is for their live show and the other for a screenplay he's been working on...
Chris mentions, "My approach writing songs has always been making albums with the listener in mind. Moving them emotionally, giving them a soul experience and of course, hoping they get up and -shake it!"
On the band's current project the 14 songs are divided into two albums. John Christopher Hughes is working on one at Post Historic Studio's in Milwaukee and Jim Fonk is helping with the other at the bands studio in Burlington, Wisconsin. Jim is also involved in recording, synth work, drum sampling and bass on all of the current song material. Both projects include the star talents of guitarist Greg Milo, synth player Ben Baumgart and guitarist Jake Baumgart.
Chris and Jim have been working together since the spring of 1999 putting out a project under the title; Seer / Sonic Sugar, in 2003. Distributed through CDBaby. Chris also chose to release and distribute his self titled album; Seer / Seer, from circa 1996 - both albums continue to generate plays and sales globally.
A blend of songs from the earlier album and ones from the current project, were taken out and played live in clubs around southeastern Wisconsin with grand feedback from the attending audiences before heading back into the recording studio to work on new material.
In addition Sonic Sugar songs are being offered for licensing opportunities.
