The Archies is a fictional American rock band that features in media produced by, and related to, Archie Comics.
They are best remembered for their appearance in the animated TV series The Archie Show. "Sugar, Sugar," which was co-written by Andy Kim and Jeff Barry, who also lent their talents for the background vocals, was the fictional group's most successful song.
Initially released on May 24, 1969, the song didn't hit it big until July, when it was rereleased on Calendar/Kirshner Records.
