Sugar Ray

Sugar Ray started out as a Funk Metal/Alternative Metal Band, but their true success was when they created a slickly produced Alternative blend of Pop.  Their songs were a little gimmicky, but it worked for them.  Sugar Ray had enough Alt appeal to work for some of that group, and the pretty boy good looks of lead singer Mark McGrath gave them an instant female fan base.   They scored two number ones and if they can gain a career renaissance in the next decade they could be a Hall surprise.
