Sugar Candy Mountain is an American psychedelic pop duo that crafts a brand of music which can be best described as a sweet blend of harmony-driven, dreamy and evocative soundscapes. The band, hailing from Oakland, California, is often characterized by its sun-soaked, retro-tinged tunes and contemplative lyrics, evoking the laid-back essence of West Coast psychedelia.

The group was founded by multi-instrumentalists Ash Reiter and Will Halsey, with their sound deftly combining the lush, pastoral sounds of the '60s and '70s with modern fidelity and sensibility, creating an indulgent experience for listeners. Sugar Candy Mountain gained recognition for tracks such as "Impression", "Do Right", and the blissful "Please Don't Look Away". Their body of work also includes creative live sessions like "Jam in the Van - Sugar Candy Mountain (Live Session)", showcasing their ability to captivate with their live performances. With their introspective lyricism and timeless melodies, Sugar Candy Mountain continues to enchant audiences seeking a psychedelic retreat to a mellower, more contemplative space.
