Artist Biography
Gwen Renée Stefani Rossdale (born October 3, 1969) is an American singer, songwriter, fashion designer, and frontwoman of the ska/rock band No Doubt.
One of her first breaks came when she performed a duet with Sublime. She said she fell in love with Bradley Nowell the first time she heard his voice, but was shocked he was white.
Stefani first experienced mainstream success with the release of 1995's Tragic Kingdom, which spawned hits such as Just a Girl, Spiderwebs, and Don't Speak. Follow-up albums did not match the sales of Tragic Kingdom, but were successful on different levels of popularity and genre.
In 2004, Gwen Stefani wrote and recorded her first solo album Love. Angel. Music. Baby., for which she consulted producers The Neptunes, singer-songwriter Linda Perry and OutKast member André 3000 (also credited as Johnny Vulture), among others. The album contained pop music and dance music tracks, including hip hop and slow jam-influences. The third single Hollaback Girl was a very successful international single, and became the first U.S. digital single to exceed sales of one million.
