nfluenced by artists such as Stevie Wonder and The Beatles, and powered by Annie’s soulful voice, The Sidleys write songs that are memorable and modern, yet instantly classic. Operating as a family based collective, The Sidleys are composed of Sean Sidley (drums), Colin Sidley (bass / vocals), Ian Sidley (keyboards / vocals), and are spearheaded by mom and dad Annie and Steve‘s collaborative efforts on production and vocals.
With three critically acclaimed albums under their belt, The Sidleys have become indie rock connoisseurs of the Washington DC area and are ready to further infiltrate the scene with their fourth album, Sugar Kingdom.
“The album title comes from the name of this single, which is also the name of a candy shop. The music is very sweet, hooky, and full of gummi earworms so the title seemed fitting!”
“Unlike most of the songs on the album which were written jointly by Annie and Steve, Sugar Kingdom was written mostly by Steve and features his lead vocal as well. Taking its cue from psychedelic rock of the 60’s and 90’s, this song is full of sweet harmonies and double entendre, a technicolor and kaleidoscopic musical trip. Big, shiny, and psychedelic; with candy imagery and lots of sexual innuendo, this tune has been called the song of the summer! “
