That said, I am incredibly appreciative and indebted to Jennifer and Kristian for all the hard work and talent they brought to this band, which has resulted in such great success for us all. We plan to support each other wholeheartedly into the future." source: sugarlandmusic.com, cmt.com updated February 1, 2006 : : : : : Sugarland official website listen to Sugarland free samples / download from iTunes Buy Sugarland now from Amazon Related Country Music NewsFollow ACountry |
