Sugar Hiccup is one of the most iconic bands of the ‘90s alternative rock boom. Their ethereal sound, driven by shoegaze influences, dynamic drums, and high-pitched vocal stylings, opened the doors for female-fronted indie artists to embrace non-conventional forms of pop/rock music and deep-dive into the dreamier end of songwriting and production.

Their debut album, Oracle sold more than 20,000 copies and won the Best Alternative Recording at the Awit Awards (the Philippines’ version of the Grammys), while its banner single “Five Years” earned two KATHA awards for Best Alternative Song and Best Alternative Performance by the songwriters’ organization KATHA. In 1998, the band released their sophomore album, Womb to critical acclaim.
