Gold and Green – SugarlandView More By Sugarland Our ReviewGold and Green balances five traditional Christmas carols with five non-religious humanitarian tunes to make for a festive album that almost anyone can enjoy — even those relatives who don’t care too much for country music. That’s right — though the opening “City of Silver Dreams” celebrates Christmastime in New York City with some of that familiar award-winning twang-pop, Sugarland daringly branch out with “Coming Home,” a slow-burning, jazzy number where singer Jennifer Nettles croons with more gospel- tinged soul than previously heard.
