Sugarplum Fairies is a dream pop musical group founded by Ben Bohm (guitars, bg vocals) and Silvia Ryder (vocals) in 1999. After the duo parted ways in 2014, Ryder assembled a rotating line-up of co-writers and guest musicians, culminating in the creation of 'Sunday, Suddenly', which was released September 18, 2015 on Starfish Records.

Payday Flowers[]

On the current album, ‘Payday Flowers’, Sugarplum Fairies veers from sleepy shoegaze to eclectic Vaudeville, featuring Lee Hazlewood reminiscent horn arrangements alongside languid soundscapes.

‘Payday Flowers’ features Ken Coomer (Wilco) on drums, Jebin Bruni (Public Image Ltd, Fiona Apple) on keyboards, Jeff McElroy (Howlin’ Rain) on bass, and Danny T. Levin (Iggy Pop, Rilo Kiley) on horns. The album was produced and mixed by Gold Star, and mastered by Timothy Stollenwerk (Ariel Pink, The Dandy Warhols).
