On August 22, 2010, Sugar Ray's [[Twitter]] page announced that Craig "DJ Homicide" Bullock had left the band.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/sugarrayband/status/21814199959 |title=Twitter / Sugar Ray: On behalf of SR family, we |website=Twitter.com |date=2010-08-22 |access-date=2012-04-26}}</ref> In 2011, the band had what McGrath described as not "the highest-grossing year for Sugar Ray". Murphy Karges and Stan Frazier also left, one not wanting to tour anymore, and the other taking a job with [[Aaron Rodgers]]. This left Rodney Sheppard and McGrath as the remaining original members.<ref name="ocregister.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.ocregister.com/articles/mcgrath-360467-sugar-ray.html |title=It's been almost a decade since Sugar Ray has |website=Ocregister.com |date=June 23, 2012 |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref> The band recruited replacements in percussionist Al Keith, bassist Justin Bivona and drummer Jesse Bivona, the latter two being touring support members in the past.<ref name="ocregister.com"/>{{confusing-inline|date=March 2018}} [[File:Sugar Ray at some mall.jpg|thumb|Sugar Ray performing]]

In 2012, McGrath worked with [[Art Alexakis]], frontman and vocalist of the band [[Everclear (band)|Everclear]], on starting up a 1990s nostalgia tour, something they had discussed in the past but had always felt was too soon to be successful.<ref>{{cite news |author=Sean Spillane |url=http://www.ctpost.com/music/article/Sugar-Ray-part-of-Summerland-Tour-coming-to-3732000.php |title=Sugar Ray part of Summerland Tour coming to Mohegan Sun Arena – Connecticut Post |newspaper=Connecticut Post |date=2012-07-24 |access-date=2014-04-23 |archive-date=January 9, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140109035238/http://www.ctpost.com/music/article/Sugar-Ray-part-of-Summerland-Tour-coming-to-3732000.php |url-status=dead }}</ref> The result was the "Summerland" tour, featuring a line-up of alternative rock bands that "at least had a big hit or two" in the 1990s, containing McGrath and Alexakis's own bands along with [[Marcy Playground]], [[Gin Blossoms]], and [[Lit (band)|Lit]].<ref name="rollingstone.com">{{cite magazine|author=Andy Greene |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/mark-mcgrath-i-understand-why-people-dont-like-me-20130212 |title=Mark McGrath: 'I Understand Why People Don't Like Me' &#124; Music News |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]]|date=2013-02-12 |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref><ref name="alternativeaddiction.com">{{cite web|url=http://www.alternativeaddiction.com/musicnews/article/2771/Looking-Past-Summerland-2012-with-Sugar-Ray-and-Mark-McGrath |title=Looking Past Summerland 2012 with Sugar Ray and Mark McGrath |website=AlternativeAddiction.com |date=2012-09-21 |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref> Percussionist Al Keith (Khalil Al-Rashad) injured his foot on July 2, 2012 at Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar, California, during the song "Fly". He was absent from shows until August 2012. The tour was deemed a success, and McGrath initially spoke of the possibility of it becoming a yearly event.<ref name="alternativeaddiction.com"/> Initial plans to expand the nostalgia touring into 2013 faced issues. McGrath announced a "Mark McGrath & Friends" tour, in which the band would perform alongside other 1990s alternative rock bands [[Smash Mouth]], [[Spin Doctors]], and [[Vertical Horizon]], on a [[cruise ship]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/mark_mcgrath/status/289092600739282946 |title=Twitter / mark_mcgrath: Happy to announce the Mark |website=Twitter.com |date=2013-01-09 |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref> though the plans were cancelled, with the idea losing support after the [[Carnival Triumph cruise ship disaster]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://touch.latimes.com/|title=LA Times|website=Webarchive.loc.gov|url-status=bot: unknown|archive-url=http://webarchive.loc.gov/all/20121006015957/http://touch.latimes.com/|archive-date=October 6, 2012|df=mdy-all}}</ref> Additionally, McGrath and Alexakis did not see eye to eye on the future direction for the "Summerland" tour, leading to Sugar Ray leaving its 2013 incarnation<ref>{{cite magazine|author=Andy Greene |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/2013-summerland-tour-unites-everclear-live-filter-20130325 |title=2013 Summerland Tour Unites Everclear, Live, Filter &#124; Music News |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=2013-03-25 |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref> in favor of starting their own rival nostalgia tour called "Under the Sun" instead.<ref name="rollingstone.com"/> The tour ran three separate years – 2013, 2014, and 2015.<ref name=rockcellarmagazine/>

As early as 2013, McGrath spoke of recording and releasing an [[extended play|EP]], though at the time, he was unsure if it would be released as a band release or a solo release.<ref name="alternativeaddiction.com"/> On April 9, 2013, Mark McGrath announced via Twitter that he would be "heading to Pulse Recording Studios" to record the new material, he stated July to be a hopeful release date.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://twitter.com/mark_mcgrath/status/321712278489690112 |title=Twitter / mark_mcgrath: Going into Pulse Recording |publisher=Twitter.com |access-date=2014-04-23}}</ref> For the tour, and drummer Jesse Bivona and bassist Justin Bivona were temporarily replaced by drummer [[Dean Butterworth]] and bassist Serg Dimitrijevic, as the Bivona brothers' band The Interrupters are opening for [[Rancid (band)|Rancid]]. On September 9, 2013, former members Stan Frazier (drums, percussion, programming, backing vocals) and Murphy Karges (bass guitar, backing vocals) performed with Scott Foster (lead vocals, guitar), Lewis Richards (guitar, backing vocals), and Damon Tucker (guitar, backing vocals) during Keep Calm and Beat H.E.A.T.

On November 9, 2013, Sugar Ray was to play a benefit for the Greater Los Angeles Fisher House

The band continued its "Under the Sun" tour through 2014. However, in June 2014, McGrath revealed that the band had been struggling with legal wranglings with Karges and Frazier since their departure in 2012, and that because of it, he felt there would never be another Sugar Ray album.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://arena.com/article/mark-mcgrath-stays-fly-carries-the-90s-torch|title=Home – Arena Music|work=arena.com|access-date=April 30, 2015|archive-date=April 14, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150414214948/https://arena.com/article/mark-mcgrath-stays-fly-carries-the-90s-torch|url-status=dead}}</ref> McGrath would later release the EP as a solo EP entitled ''Summertime's Coming'' in 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fuse.tv/2015/06/sugar-ray-mark-mcgrath-solo-ep|title=Sugar Ray's Mark McGrath Is Crowdfunding His First Solo EP |website=Fuse.tv|access-date=November 20, 2018}}</ref><ref name="Fuse2017"/> As of the fall of 2014, drummer Jesse Bivona and bassist Justin Bivona are no longer in Sugar Ray (leaving officially in 2016); drummer Dean Butterworth became a full member in fall 2014, while bassist Kristian Attard became a full member in 2016.
