The Sugarcanes Release Smashing Soul Single, “Wish It Would Rain”

“Wish It Would Rain” is the first single for Melbourne soul outfit The Sugarcanes, but if you didn’t know better you’d swear these guys had decades of industry experience. It has such a fantastic old school feel, with confident vocals from Lucy Wilson.

The Sugarcanes are no strangers to the live music scene, with performances at Meredith, Boogie, and the Beechworth Music Festival over the years and supporting slots for Smith Street Band, The Bennies, and Loose Tooth. If they kept releasing singles this good, they’re sure to step up as headliners soon.

The Sugarcanes Take Soulful Sound on the Road

With their self-titled debut album in stores now, it’s the perfect time for soulful Melbourne act The Sugarcanes to travel around the country.

It’s already been a big year for the Sugarcanes, who enjoyed a celebrated residency at The Old Bar and toured the country with The Smith Street Band. They also earned some big praise for their stellar single “Never Call.” Lucy Wilson’s powerhouse vocals and the track’s lush horns are just a match made in heaven.
