Matchbox Twenty Tickets

Matchbox Twenty Tickets Continued

Under the name Matchbox 20, the band released their first album, Yourself or Someone Like You, in 1996. The album eventually went on to sell over 12 million copies in the US alone, earning diamond status.

Before recording their next album, Rob Thomas wrote a song for Carlos Santana's comeback album, Supernatural, on which he sang vocals. The song, "Smooth", became the album's lead single and a gigantic smash hit in 1999 and Thomas would earn several Grammys for writing it. In 2000, Matchbox 20 renamed themselves Matchbox Twenty and released their second album, Mad Season.

For their third album, the other band members demanded equal songwriting credit. Sharing the songwriting duties proved to be a good idea, as the band once again had a greatly successful album, More Than You Think You Are.

In February 2005, rhythm guitarist Adam Gaynor officially left the group, which had been on hiatus to allow other members to pursue side projects. Rob Thomas has then had some solo releases, including the US Billboard 200 #1 album, ...Something To Be, and the top ten hit, "Lonely No More".
