LOXLEY, AL – May 19, 2024 – Americana and roots duo Sugarcane Jane, consisting of Anthony Crawford and Savana Lee, are thrilled to announce the release of their new single, “Put it in Your Pocket,” from their highly acclaimed album “On a Mission.” The album was released on March 1, 2024, via Admiral Bean Records.
Anthony Crawford, a seasoned music industry veteran and longtime bandmate of Neil Young, shares the inspiration behind “Put it in Your Pocket”: “I wrote this song at the tail end of my relationship with Pete Anderson and record deal. There was a situation where he wanted me to learn from the experience and take the positive out of it. So it’s a song about finding the positive inside of all situations, learning from experiences, and carrying it forward. It’s abstract and not easily explained in the delivery, but that has been my style. I sometimes don’t know what the meaning is of my own songs until years later.”
“Put it in Your Pocket” embodies the essence of finding silver linings in life’s challenges, a theme that resonates throughout the entire “On a Mission” album. Known for their soulful harmonies and heartfelt lyrics, Sugarcane Jane’s latest work highlights their perseverance and musical evolution.
Sugarcane Jane will perform at the renowned Strawberry Music Festival on May 24th.
“On a Mission” is a joyride of eleven tracks that blend rock, country, and gospel, all while maintaining the duo’s signature sound. The album reflects the duo’s deep love for each other and their shared journey through life’s ups and downs. The first single from the album, “Burn,” reached the UK iTunes Alternative Songs Top 50, setting high expectations for the rest of the album.
Sugarcane Jane has captivated audiences for over a decade, drawing comparisons to other acclaimed duos like Johnny and June, and Sonny and Cher. With Anthony Crawford’s impressive credits working alongside legends such as Neil Young, Steve Winwood, and Dwight Yoakam, and with songs recorded by icons like Kenny Rogers and the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, the duo has garnered a loyal following and widespread acclaim.
“There is solid harmony, loads of instrumental fills, and memorable melodies, all alive and well in ‘On a Mission,’ an album of laidback Folk that that swings with a pop and punch.” – The Alternate Root
