Singer, Songwriter, and Pianist. He was a part of the popular group "Matchbox Twenty" for about 8 years before he took a turn and released a well-to-do solo record, which put him further into the mainstream-
flow. In the early '90's, he took the lead singer/co-songwriter positions for an obscure bar-band in the southern region known as "
Tabitha's Secret", which broke up in about 1994/1995 due to disputes over whether or not they should sign to a major label - 3 out of the 5 members went on to form Matchbox Twenty (Rob Thomas,
Paul Doucette, and
Brian Yale). He is currently married to former
Victoria's Secret model Marisol Malonado and has a young toddler by the name of Maison Thomas (who was conceived through a former-girlfriend). Oh yeah, he is one of the most talented musicians to ever grace this
earth, he's very authentic, and he's one of the most electrifying musicans to play live. Ever.
