The Sugarcubes

The Sugarcubes were an Icelandic rock-pop band formed in 1986 and disbanded in 1992. They received critical and popular acclaim in both the US and the UK. Albums include the following:

• Life's Too Good (1988)
• Here Today, Tomorrow, Next Week! (1989)
• Stick Around for Joy (1992)
• It's It (remixes collection) (1992)
• The Great Crossover Potential (greatest hits compilation) (1998)

The band's sound was characterized by whimsical yet heartfelt lyrics, and the imploring, girlish voice of vocalist Björk, who later went on to great success as a solo artist.

Besides Björk, the band was made up of:

• Sigtryggur Baldursson (drums)
• Einar Örn Benediktsson (vocals, trumpet)
• Einar Melax (keyboards)
• Þór Eldon (guitar)
• Bragi Ólafsson (bass)
• Margrét Örnólfsdóttir (keyboards)
