Sugar Ray

Sugar Ray is an American rock band formed in 1986 in Newport Beach, California. Led by the charismatic Mark McGrath, the band became one of the defining acts of late-1990s alternative rock and pop rock, blending catchy melodies with a sun-soaked California sound.

After years of playing the Southern California club circuit, Sugar Ray broke through with their 1997 hit "Fly," a reggae-tinged pop rock anthem that became inescapable on radio stations across the country. The song's breezy, carefree vibe perfectly captured the spirit of summer.

Their follow-up hits "Every Morning" and "Someday" further cemented their status as masters of feel-good pop rock. The band's ability to craft irresistibly catchy hooks while maintaining a laid-back, beach-ready attitude made them a staple of late-90s radio.

Sugar Ray's music remains a beloved part of the alternative rock era, and their sun-drenched sound is a perfect match for Pirate Radio 121's Lake Lewisville vibes. Mark McGrath's energy and the band's infectious hooks keep fans coming back decade after decade.
