Sugar Ray is a rock band from Orange County, California. The band formed in 1992 with the name Shrinky Dinx, later changing it to Sugar Ray after the boxer Sugar Ray Leonard. Their debut album, Lemonade and Brownies, was released in 1995. It failed to produce a major hit. Their early work was strongly influenced by funk metal, punk, alternative rock and straight up R&B, not a particularly fashionable combination at the time.
Sugar Ray’s first mainstream hit came in the summer of 1997 with their song “Fly”, which was released on the album Floored and featured notable reggae artist Super Cat. “Fly” was notable for not sounding anything at all like the rest of the tracks on the album and received frequent (some called it “constant”) radio play. As a result of the success of “Fly”, Floored sold extremely well and was certified double platinum. However, by the end of 1997, critics skeptical that Sugar Ray could put out another successful song labeled them a one-hit wonder.
Their 1999 album 14:59 was the sardonic reply to these accusations, with the title implying that their fifteen minutes of fame were not quite up—their “fame clock” reading 14:59. “Every Morning”, which received widespread comparisons to “Fly”, rose to similar success in late 1998. Their follow-up single “Someday” received extensive airplay during 1999 as well. This album, which outsold its predecessor and was certified triple platinum, proved that Sugar Ray was not a one-hit wonder after all. Sugar Ray was also set to play at Woodstock ‘99, but had to cancel due to illness.
