It was thanks to the 2012 movie/documentary “Searching for Sugar Man” that we were introduced to the incredible music of Sixto Rodriguez. If you know what movie we are talking about you will know just how mind-blowing the story behind the Detroit singer/songwriter is.
It is hard to talk about it without giving some of the unexpected twists away so we recommend you all to watch the documentary without doing any research or googling first. Trust us 🙂
We’ve been hooked on his work ever since and wanted to cover some of his music. “Sugarman” seemed like the perfect pick. Albeit dark, we love the song and the entire record and thoroughly enjoyed giving it a two-person-only makeover. We hope you enjoy it!

Love the song pace and the harmonies, it kind of hooks you.

I must admit to having never heard of or being familiar at all with this song, music, person, movie- documentary, until now. I have to now Google and YouTube it to find out what all about….. Always something new to learn on here or rediscover, etc… I enjoyed this session , the way, you sung, played – instrumentation, all intertwining in harmony , will definitely be sharing YouTube link.

** Correction Note ** … I had meant to say will share the YouTube link for ” Sugar Man ” once it ‘s official/ public and not before …. my ongoing eye issues still causing me grief and I don’t always word stuff correctly and if I caused any inadvertly confusion , my apologies, was not the intent .
I love the Duo Session format. There’s more – you – to it. Amazing like always. You are the best.
Interesting song choice and documentary. I’m from Detroit, so I noticed a couple things in that film that they didn’t talk about.
Oh, and in spite of what that film showed, it doesn’t snow every day here. Thanks.
Bardzo ładnie.. słodko…
