Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush make up country duo Sugarland who've sold over 8 million records since exploding onto the music scene in '04 with Twice The Speed Of Life. Enjoy the Ride ("Want To"/"Settlin'"/"Stay") quickly followed in '06 and their third studio album Love On The Inside ("It Happens"/"Love"/"All I Want To Do"/"Already Gone") in July '08, which skyrocketed them to superstardom, drawing fans from all genres and critics abroad. Sugarland is credited with co-writing all tracks from all three albums and co-producing the last two. In August '09, the duo offered a thank you to their loyal fans and the result was Live On The Inside, a CD/DVD set of live tracks, covers and footage from their tour. They've performed in six European countries and toured and headlined shows tirelessly. They've received trophies from the Grammys, American Music Awards, Academy of Country Music, CMT Music Awards and the Country Music Association. Nettles has performed for the Obama Presidential celebration, and the duo for Oprah. Check out their latest album Gold And Green, a 10-track holiday collection consisting of half standards and half originals, all of which Nettles and Bush co-wrote and co-produced.
