Philadelphia-based singer-songwriter and ukulele player Sug Daniels is more than just a musician; she’s a storyteller who uses her art to capture the emotions of an era.
In this episode of The High Note Podcast, I had the privilege of chatting with Sug to discuss her musical journey, from her roots in the small town of Smyrna, Delaware, to her thriving career in Philadelphia.
Sug’s music is a powerful blend of folk, rock, and soul, infused with truth, love, and positive change messages. We explored her transition from leading bands like Hoochi Coochi and FlowCity to a solo career that has taken her music to new heights.
Sug’s electric ukulele tunes have caught the attention of WXPN, NPR, and even Good Morning America, and she’s just getting started.
As she prepares to perform 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 17 on the Tank Stage at the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Sug is also working on a new EP that promises to be as joyful and catchy as her live performances.
Whether you’ve been following Sug’s career for years or are just discovering her for the first time, this interview offers an intimate look at an artist who is using her voice to inspire and uplift those around her.
