When Sugar Ray's breakthrough hit song Fly put them on the map in 1997, lead vocalist Mark McGrath was thrust into the public eye. It's no doubt the band maintains its momentum due in no small part to the good looks, charisma and talent of its front man, Mark McGrath.
Born in Hartford, Connecticut and raised in Southern California, McGrath first appeared with Sugar Ray when he jumped on stage and grabbed the microphone. The band's collaboration with reggae artist Super Cat resulted in the song "Fly," which dominated the airwaves. Then came the release of three triple-platinum hit singles Every Morning, Someday and Falls Apart. Sugar Ray's success rocketed McGrath to pop-star status, as he graced the covers of Rolling Stone and Spin. He even made People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive issue, and was named Sexiest Rocker.
McGrath has made guest appearances on the hit television dramas Las Vegas and North Shore. He has been featured on a number of MTV and VH1 programs, including the Teen Choice Awards, My VH1 Music Awards, Rock 'n' Roll Jeopardy, the American Music Awards and the ESPY Awards. Currently Mark is the co-host of Extra, which can be seen nightly on NBC.
