Sugar Ray, Uncle Kracker & Better Than Ezra Singers Team Up for New Single 'B.Y.H.B.' Ahead of Summer Tour

In case the announcement of 90sFest last week had you wondering whether or not the dream of the '90s was alive, boy, is there something new out there for you. Today (June 23), the frontmen from Better Than Ezra, Sugar Ray and Uncle Kracker teamed up to form a nostalgic supergroup, fittingly titled Uncle Ezra Ray. The title of the offering we got from Kevin Griffin, Mark McGrath and Uncle Kracker? "B.Y.H.B."

Despite being written and performed by some of the men who defined the sound of the '90s, "B.Y.H.B." (which stands for "Bring your hot body") sounds remarkably like the bro country dudes of the 2010s. Griffin, McGrath and Kracker sing about partying despite lacking some of the more lavish materials like Cristal. Instead, they have disco balls in pine trees, friends from Twitter and the classic "Love Shack" bumping from an 8-track player they must have found around.

Perhaps it's just the themes of "we gots to party" set against the soaring summery guitars and the relaxed vocals from your '90s favs, but "B.Y.H.B." sounds remarkably like a new single from the likes of Florida Georgia Line or Luke Bryan.

If you've missed the '90s, however, then this is apparently the new song for you. Listen to the debut single from the old school supergroup Uncle Ezra Ray below, via Radio.com:

The collaboration between Uncle Kracker, Better Than Ezra and Sugar Ray should come as no real surprise to those who follow the '90s music scene closely. The three acts and Eve 6 will be hitting the road this summer on the Under The Sun Tour, which is set to kick off on July 17 in Chandler, Arizona.
