	"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

April 17, 2007 | Sugarland CMT Video Award

Big shout of congrats to JazzMando friend, Kristian Bush of Sugarland for the duo's "Best Video" award at last night's CMT Music Awards for "Want To." Kristian has been known to sling a few of our favorite instruments including an Ovation MM68, Epiphone Mandobird, and several fashion colors of Rigel G-110. The band's success has been relatively recent; although their popularity has only achieved critical mass in the last couple years, Bush is a long-time vetaran Nashville song crafter. Sugarland is on currently on an extensive USA tour.
