Beyond sales of 10-million records, four top 10 songs, over a billion streams, and millions of tickets sold, Sugar Ray – co-founded by Mark McGrath [vocals] and Rodney Sheppard [lead guitar] – embody the endless summer of popular music and culture. The band has had the privilege of performing on the same stage as other large artists such as The Rolling Stones, KISS, and Sex Pistols, Run-DMC and was interpolated by Post Malone.
1994’s Lemonade & Brownies took the guys around the world and earned cult classic status for its frenetic and unpredictable hybrid and later set the stage for FLOORED in 1997. The latter’s immortal lead single “Fly” [feat. Super Cat] made them a household name. 21 years down the road, Post Malone incorporated “Fly” in “Sugar Wraith” on the triple-platinum Beerbongs & Bentleys. Helmed by GRAMMY® Award-winning producer David Kahne [Sublime, Paul McCartney, The Strokes], FLOORED earned the band’s first gold plaque and eventually went double-platinum. Two years later, 14:59 bowed in the Top 20 of the Billboard Top 200, went triple-platinum, and gave us “Someday,” “Falls Apart,” and their second No.1 “Every Morning.”
In 2001, Sugar Ray crashed the Top 200 at No.6 as “When It’s Over” staked out a spot on the charts. It added another platinum plaque to their walls. Enjoying a renaissance, Sugar Ray headlined the Under the Sun Tour 2013-2015. They inked a deal with BMG in 2019 and dropped their seventh full-length, Lil Yachty. In addition to features from Rolling Stone and Billboard, NPR claimed, “The Newport Beach natives returned to their signature uplifting and airy rock sound.” It only set the stage for more touring and music. No matter how much everything changes, we’ve got Sugar Ray forever. Don’t miss the chance to see a nostalgic performance by Sugar Ray on Thursday, October 3 at the 2024 Big Fresno Fair!
