Info
A very old saying goes that no one saves us but ourselves. Recognizing and breaking free from the patterns impeding our forward progress can be transformative - just ask Bully's Alicia Bognanno. Indeed, the third Bully album, SUGAREGG, may not ever have come to fruition had Bognanno not navigated every kind of upheaval imaginable and completely overhauled her working process along the way. There was change that needed to happen and it happened on this record, she says. Derailing my ego and insecurities allowed me to give these songs the attention they deserved. SUGAREGG roars from the speakers and jumpstarts both heart and mind.
