Joe or Brian?

It was thought that I was recently spotted in Ft. Meyer's, FL.  Turns out it was just Minnesota Twins closer Joe Nathan.

Get in my belly...

 

After months of speculation, Baby's gender is still unidentified. A Valentine's Day ultrasound did not reveal anything that the parents, Gina and Brian, did not want to see. The baby weighted in at 1lb 14ozs, had a heartrate of 152 beats per minute, and has decided that it will be finished cooking a few days earlier then expected, as it's due date has been moved up to May 25th.

A note from Mike Doughty:

Hi, People. At this point, after years of threatening and teasing about a fully-realized solo record coming out (who do I think I am, Axl Rose?!), my ATO debut, HAUGHTY MELODIC, is done at last. It'll be released on May 3rd.

I've been working on it since December of 2002, when I first flew out to Dan Wilson's place in Minnesota for what was supposed to be a weekend-long writing session, and realized that he should produce the album. For two years, I flew out there whenever he had a little time -- for five days, a week, two weeks, whatever he could spare -- and did a song or two, or added some instruments. It kept growing and changing, and at last I have something that I think is really beautiful.

So I wrote a bunch of songs about yearning and redemption and happiness and hope, and Dan and I concieved this sound, a very colorful, ornamented sound that combined melancholia and psychedelia. We got a bunch of fantastic musicians from Minneapolis and New York to make it happen.

A chance encounter with Dave Matthews, an old friend, at Bonnaroo 2004 resulted in me being signed to his label, ATO. I couldn't be happier -- ATO is a good bunch of solid, artist-oriented people.

Mike
