Produced by multiple Juno Award winner Steve Dawson (who also contributes his trademark guitar work) and featuring Chris Gestrin (K-os, Kate Hammett-Vaughn) on keys, John Raham (Kinnie Starr, The Be Good Tanya's) on drums and Keith Lowe (Fiona Apple, Bill Frisell) on standup bass, Sugar is a remarkably assured work from an artist who's time has truly come. Featuring co-writes with Lennie Gallant, Kevin Coles and her father John Alcorn, the album is a delightfully nuanced, down tempo gem that leaves plenty of room for Coco's spectacular voice to shine. Focusing on themes of love, angels and the power within, the album is masterfully wrought by Dawson and will no doubt draw comparisons to the work of other Canadian female luminaries such as Jane Siberry, Holly Cole and k.d. lang.
