How to Hire SUGAR RAY For Your Event!
Sugar Ray is an American rock band formed in Newport
Beach, California, in 1986.
Originally playing heavier funk metal and nu metal style
music, the band achieved mainstream popularity in 1997 with their more
pop-influenced single "Fly". The song's success led the band to shift its style
dramatically to the more radio-friendly pop sound with their subsequent
releases.

After the Studio 56 sessions, Sugar Ray moved into the famed Sunset Sound Studios, smack dab on the Sunset Strip. The band found themselves in thrall to the place's vibe, not to mention the musical ghosts of the Doors and
The Rolling Stones.
The band proudly credit their musical growth to their collaborative relationship with "Floored" producer David Kahne. "David's become our George Martin, if you will," says Murphy. "He really knows the dynamic. He's a record producer in the truest sense of the word. He's worked with everybody from Romeo Void to Tony Bennett to
Sublime, so he encompasses the full spectrum of music. And that's us. We needed someone who could go to those extremes."

In addition to helping Sugar Ray find their musical voice, Kahne also gave Mark a new strength and confidence as a singer.
"Before I was always just sort of clutching at straws," McGrath says. "I'd be screaming here, I'd go to a falsetto there. David really showed me where my voice wants to be."
That growth is perfectly in tune with the band's shared experiences in the years since their 1995 Lava/Atlantic debut,
"Lemonade and Brownies." Among the adventures shared by Sugar Ray was the relentless activity which followed "Floored."
The band hit the road across America and Europe with a vengeance, including a spot on the big
Blockbuster RockFest in Fort Worth, Texas, with others such as
Third Eye Blind,
Collective Soul,
Counting Crows, Jewel,
No Doubt,
Matchbox Twenty,
Bush,
The Wallflowers
and Paula Cole. They
performed at the Warped Tour '97 along with
Blink-182,
Descendents,
The
Mighty Mighty Bosstones,
Pennywise,
Reel Big Fish, and
Social
Distortion and Edgefest along with
Faith No More,
Smash Mouth,
Reel Big Fish,
Our Lady Peace,
and
Limp Bizkit.
Also in 1997, Sugar Ray toured extensively with
Smash Mouth,
Blur and
Third Eye Blind.
The mind-blowing popularity of "Fly" found Sugar Ray dominating America's airwaves – the song held the #1 position on the Billboard "Hot 100 Airplay" chart for six consecutive weeks while the song's companion clip was a #1 video at MTV, VH1, and The Box – and performing on national TV programs such as "Late Show With
David Letterman", "The
Rosie O'Donnell Show", "Late Night With
Conan O'Brien", and "The Howard Stern Show", not to mention Mark's smart appearances on "Politically Incorrect" and VH1's "Rock 'N' Roll Jeopardy."
They also found their faces in any number of magazines, including Rolling Stone, Details, Spin, Cosmopolitan, Request, Alternative Press, TeenPeople, and People (who declared Mark one of the sexiest men of '98!). With all the hubbub surrounding them, Sugar Ray became a close-knit family, confronting deaths, celebrating marriages, reveling in a huge hit record, and ultimately coming through with evolved perspective."
Their discography includes six studio albums, two compilation
albums, and nineteen singles.
