Sugarblade was started in July 2004 when Miguel Staunton and Alec Brietzke first sat down together to jam out some songs. Both musicians had just come from broken bands, Miguel from "Faces of Eve" and Alec from "Junedog". Realizing that Sugarblade needed other musicians, Miguel and Alec set out to find a drummer and bass player. Recently coming out of a band herself, Maverick recording artist, "Lillix", Kim Urhahn seemed an ideal addition on drums. And soon after, Greg, a fellow "Junedog" band mate of Alec's, joined the trio on bass. Thus, completing the band. Sugarblade considers themselves a rock band with a hint of power-pop. Their sound has been compared to bands such as Stone Temple Pilots and The Foo Fighters with the vocal stylings of Morrissey and Peter Gabriel. The band is proud and flattered to be compared to such influential and widely respected artists. Sugarblade hopes to release their debut album in the spring of 2006 and in the meantime are looking forward to playing their music for as many people as they can.
