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.

Billboard reports:

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…”

The Listening Room: The new Sugarland song rocks!!!

Geez, no wonder Sugarland beat Miley Cyrus in the billboard. I’m not into country much hardily at all, hell, I even don’t like the country group Sugarland too much. I ain’t afraid to say that I’m digging their new song, “All I Want To Do”.

It’s a great tune. I don’t think I’ll buy Sugarland’s new album, but I do like this one song though. I love the melody to the chorus, very catchy and definitely something to sing along to. Can’t get this song out of my head.
