Artists Partner with Coal Creek Smokehouse and Peacemaker Brewing for limited time collaborations around this single

Tomorrow (6.18), Harvard-grad sibling rockers Jocelyn & Chris return with “Sugar and Spice,” “a bluesy romp showing off their knack for classic song-craft” (American Songwriter) and their first release since the world health crisis took hold last year. This is a taste of their forthcoming eighth studio album. Channeling the powerhouse-style vocals of iconic female rockers like Janis Joplin and Stevie Nicks blended perfectly with guitarwork calling back to greats like Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix, Jocelyn & Chris deliver a psychedelic 70s style on this funk-driven track about realities of a hot and cold relationship. 

Accompanying the rocking, retro-funk anthem is the official music video. With a kaleidoscope of colors, the track’s retro influences are on full display with Jocelyn’s vocals taking center stage supported by Chris’s organic, riff-driven guitar. Watch the video via American Songwriter here. 

Eight albums, continual touring, and their “millennial spin on classic rock” (NBC TODAY) has earned Jocelyn & Chris three consecutive commercial radio singles in the Billboard AAA Top 40 and two #1 records on the Relix Jambands Top 30 Album Chart. Their 2019 album The Fun in the Fight landed them their national TV debut with The TODAY Show and features with Huffington Post, NowThis, Paste, The Daily Beast, People, Hollywood Reporter, and numerous others.

To celebrate “Sugar and Spice,” Jocelyn & Chris have teamed up with a couple of great product partners for a series of exciting collaborations. On Friday, Coal Creek Smokehouse in Rocky Top, TN, will release Sugar and Spice Rock and Roll BBQ Sauce, a limited-run blend of honey sweetness and spicy kick perfect for all-purpose slathering. The sauce will be available through the smokehouse website and at their restaurants. A family of avid homebrewers, Jocelyn & Chris have also teamed up with boutique craft brewery Peacemaker Brewing in Canandaigua, NY, to brew Sugar and Spice Passion Fruit Milkshake IPA. This IPA is a fruity, refreshing limited-edition concoction perfect for summer sipping, available at Peacemaker Brewing’s flagship location, Wegmans Supermarkets, and select Jocelyn & Chris performances this summer and fall. This is their second collaboration with Peacemaker; their first was 2019’s Kill in the Cure IPA. 

Siblings Jocelyn & Chris, who balanced their careers while finishing their degrees at Harvard University, first formed their band in middle school. Along the way the duo, originally from Upstate NY, have released eight albums and collaborated with some of alt-rock’s biggest names, including Cory Wong (Vulfpeck), G. Love, Byron Isaacs (Lumineers), and Gov’t Mule’s Danny Louis.
