Artist Bio
Since 1995, guitarist Paul Doucette has been an integral part of MATCHBOX TWENTY, helping the band sell over 45 million albums worldwide. Now, after more than a decade with the group, Doucette has spread his wings and embarked on a solo career. THE BREAK AND REPAIR METHOD is a chance for Doucette to show off his vocal, instrumental and songwriting skills, and to prove that he is more than capable of standing alone. With the help of a rotating cast of guest musicians, he has crafted an album of rare power and sensitivity.On Milk The Bee, Doucette has drawn from a range of genres to create a sound that is distinctively his. The sweet melodies of Seventies pop combine with acoustic singer-songwriter influences and a dash of MATCHBOX TWENTY's stadium rock, making for an album that is uplifting and cathartic. Musical luminaries like Nina Gordon (VERUCA SALT) and Tracy Bonham stop by, sprinkling their magic on several tracks -- but at the core, this is Doucette's album and his alone. Milk The Bee marks the beginning of a bold new chapter in Doucette's career, and promises to be one of your favourite records of 2009.
