Report: Sugarland founder sues current band members…

The popular country band Sugarland, is being sued by the band’s original founder and former bandmate, Kristen Hall who is the one who formed this group herself. She filed suit against this band for $1.5 million when she was promised she would get her share of profits even after she left the band back in 2005 to pursue a solo career. The current members Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush has made an agreement with Kristen long ago to share any profits but she was never paid.

The band’s newest album, “Love on the Inside” hit no 1. in the Billboard beating Miley Cyrus in a short period of time after the single “All I Want To Do” became a mainstream success.

Kristen created the band, so she has every right to be doing this, so I’m with her on this one. If you own the band, you have every right to get profits shared. It doesn’t matter if you play in the band anymore or not.

Kristen should not have allowed the band to continue without her in the first place.

All I want to “Do do do do do Do do do do…”
