    After a five year hiatus, Sugar Ray is back and better than ever. The Southern California-based band makes its long awaited return with MUSIC FOR COUGARS, an exuberant reiteration of the band’s signature sound, with particular focus on songcraft and sonic invention. As ever, musical styles – from dancehall to disco, punk to pure pop – are mixed and matched, resulting in a celebratory, swaggering collection that is distinctively and delightfully Sugar Ray. Songs like the buoyant first single, “Boardwalk,” or the Rivers Cuomo-penned “Love Is the Answer” are fit to burst with the wit and energy that once saw the band rule over the Top 10. MUSIC FOR COUGARS sees this band of brothers operating at the very peak of its powers, with the skills, strengths, and smarts that only two decades together can provide.  “I’m not going to say we made the best record of our career,” beams singer Mark McGrath.  “That’s just so clichéd.  But we did!”

    Opening for Sugar Ray will be Fastball, the Austin, Texas rock band who gained natioanl popularity with "The Way."
