Sugar Glasgow Barrowland Ticket Presales and Prices: How to get tickets for the alternative rock legends' Scottish gig

American alternative rock band Sugar may only have been originally together for four short years from 1992-1995, but their influence has stretched out over decades.
Fronted by former Hüsker Dü singer and guitarist Bob Mould, their debut album Copper Blue was an instant classic, named Album of the Year 1992 in the NME.
Second album File Under: Easy Listening followed in 1994 and a year later the band broke up.
On October 2025 the band revealed they were getting back together for a concert in London.
This week saw a new song released, Long Live Love, along with the announcement a world tour for 2026.
