“Like That Sugar” is a country fried romp, led by banjo pickin’ and backed by a full on southern tilt boogie. Matt Basso aka Thunder Harp is not into false advertising, as some blues harmonica squeals bookend the Kid Rock-esque verses. In fact, the whole affair resembled “Cowboy” by Kid Rock to a tremendous degree, which is good news if you like to get down that way. This song seems like the soundtrack to a hot summer BBQ, with beer and chicken and maybe some trucks. Basso wants you to “give him the life that’s like that sugar, smooth like silk and just like butter” which is a totally enticing proposition. A vaguely psychadelic chorus not unlike mid period Stone Temple Pilots breaks the monotony of what is basically pop country. Recommended highly for fans of the song “Cowboy” by Kid Rock, blues harmonica, pop country and boogie party jams.
