Sugarfree, an Italian pop-rock band from Catania, Sicily, was formed in 2000. Initially a cover band specializing in classic rock, R&B, and funk, Sugarfree began writing original songs after Matteo Amantia joined as the lead singer in 2003. Their breakthrough came with their debut single "Cleptomania" released in 2004, which topped the charts. The following year, they released their first album Clepto-manie. In 2008, Sugarfree contributed the title track to Federico Moccia's film Scusa ma ti chiamo amore, and also released their second album Argento.
