Gwen Stefani is all about postpartum production.

In late May, the platinum blonde singer gave birth to her first child, son Kingston James, with husband and Bush front man Gavin Rossdale. Just a few months later, the singer announced that she was working on a new solo album as well as a live concert DVD.

The solo album, The Great Escape, hits stores next week, and in a post on her Web site, Stefani unveiled a North American tour to support the album. The 40-date jaunt will kick off April 21 at the Cricket Pavilion in Phoenix, Arizona, and conclude June 22 at the Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre in Irvine, California. Tickets are expected to go on sale in February.

Before she discovered she could write songs, Gwen Stefani was looking forward to a life of marriage, children, and white picket fences. When her brother introduced her to ska and new wave music, it set off a chain of events that would eventually lead to millions of albums sold and a Madonna-sized public image that extended past music and into...

No Doubt No Doubt

With the return of the punks in the mid-'90s came a resurgence of their slightly more commercial rivals, new wave bands. No Doubt found a niche as a new wave/ska band, on the strength of vocalist Gwen Stefani's persona -- alternately an embrace of little-girl-lost innocence and riot grrrl feminism -- exemplified on the band's breakout single,...

Once Saturn started slipping down the charts -- apparently, the kids...

Like many bands of their era, Bush was sucked into the idea that rock bands are only relevant if they incorporate electronica ideas -- a move that sank their third album, The Science of Things, and effectively derailed their career at a crucial time when post-grunge bands were falling by the wayside in an alarming fashion. This caused Bush to...
