BrownSugar Feat. Stefan Mahendra [2021] - Leave The Door Open [Live]


Here's a rundown of the releases from Stefan Mahandra, both solo and with his group BrownSugar.  Stefan has also featured as guest vocalist on several other releases.

BrownSugar was formed in 2014 by Stefan (singer/songwriter) and Iain McFarlane (drummer), and were later joined by Myles Peters (guitar) and Keshav Kansabar (bass).

Stefan is of Sri-Lankan/German heritage and was a quarter-finalist on The Voice series 8 in 2019 (he was eliminated in the 2nd round of the knockouts). He released his debut single 'Loving You Is Easy' in Nov 2020 and followed it up in Jan 2021 with 'It's Alright' (a track featured in the first 'The Dirty Dozen' in Feb). I think he's got a tremendous voice.

I came across the video of 'Leave The Door Open' by chance, and after Stefan's release in Jan 2021 I thought I'd dig further into releases by his group BrownSugar.  

I don't think it has been released (yet), as I went digging for it on Spotify and was amazed to find that already there are at least seven cover versions of the Silk Sonic hit! Jason Chen, Leroy Sanchez, William Singe, Jessica Mars, Sam Tsui and RoadsArt, and there's also a hideous piano instrumental version! Do they really think they will have a hit with it so soon after Silk Sonic? 

I can't find BrownSugar's music for sale anywhere.
