Rock Band Sugar Ray Headed for Wesleyan
released: 2/25/02

The West Virginia Wesleyan College Campus Activities Board (CAB), will present the rock quintet Sugar Ray with special guest on Monday, March 18th at 8:00pm (doors open at 7:00pm) in the Rockefeller Gymnasium on the campus of West Virginia Wesleyan College.
The band's latest album, SUGAR RAY, includes instantly addictive hits, with radio stations across the country pumping out "When It's Over" and "Answer The Phone" over the airwaves. The self-titled fourth album from the Southern California-based band artfully combines elements of rock, punk, reggae, hip-hop, and New Wave sounds to create an album that is at once worthy of repeat-listening.

The creation of the album began when Sugar Ray was on tour in 1999 with The Goo Goo Dolls. Needing a way to break-up the boredom of endless traveling, the bandmates would get together and jam, creating sounds that would eventually end up on the new album. Sugar Ray's previous two releases - 1997's double platinum FLOORED and 1999's triple platinum 14:59 - paved the way for the band to produce a collection of music with unstoppable energy and innovative songwriting.

Tickets for the general public will go on sale starting Monday, February 25th for $20. Tickets can only be purchased in the West Virginia Wesleyan College CAB office from 8:00am until 4:30pm. Individuals may pay by phone with credit card at 304-473-8104. A parent or guardian (over the age of 21) must accompany anyone under the age of 15.
