Gwen Stefani, despite appearances to the contrary, is receptive to the prospect of No Doubt performing together once again.
In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, the lead singer of the iconic ska-rock band, who is now 53 years old and was known for her role as “Hollaback Girl” singer, discussed the possibility that the band would reunite in the future.
Regarding the possibility of getting back together with guitarist Tom Dumont, bassist Tony Kanal, and drummer Adrian Young, she said that “anything might happen.”
“How likely is it that anything will happen? I’ve just finished appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show. When I was a small child, she was one of my most admired public figures, and now that I’ve had the opportunity to be on a program with her, “said Stefani.
Tragic Kingdom, which was released in 1995 and featured the band’s breakthrough hit “Don’t Speak,” was the band’s final album to feature Gwen’s brother Eric, the band’s original keyboardist. Since the band’s formation in 1986, No Doubt has released a total of six albums, the most recent of which was Tragic Kingdom in 1995.
Following the release of her album Love. Angel. Music. Baby in 2004 (which included the smash songs “Hollaback Girl,” “Rich Girl,” and “Cool”), Stefani’s solo career started to take off in 2006. This was followed by the release of her album The Sweet Escape in 2006.
Despite the fact that she thinks a No Doubt reunion may be a possibility, Stefani has conceded that there are currently no definite plans for the band’s future.
“Regarding No Doubt, I have no clue what the future holds for them. Even though we haven’t actually discussed the possibility of doing anything, it seems like everyone else is, right?” — I quote her. “Everyone from the ’90s—Blink-182 just finished an eight-month tour that was completely sold out in about five minutes.”
Despite the fact that No Doubt was reformed in 2012 to record Push and Shove, Stefani said in an interview with Rolling Stone in 2016 that her involvement in the project was accompanied by a great deal of remorse.
“I have no choice but to do it.” Making music in such an environment is not the best idea. That album has some extremely impressive writing from beginning to end. However, the production had a really ambiguous vibe about it. It was disappointing because after all of us waiting for so long to put anything out there, no one paid attention to it “— I quote her.
In an interview with Zane Lowe from Apple Music, Gwen Stefani discussed the forthcoming 30th anniversary of the release of the band’s first self-titled album, which was originally released in 1992.
During the promotion of her song “Slow Clap” in 2021, she said at the time, “It is a pretty huge thing,” adding that she often recalls her time spent with No Doubt. “Slow Clap” was released in 2021. “And I am, as seen by the amount of thought I’m giving all the songs. When you’re working on new music, it’s important to think back on all you’ve accomplished in the past.”
“Definitely, it seems unreal to consider that it was all that time ago,” she went on to say. “I have no clue what the outcomes of those scenarios will be. Do you get what I’m getting at? It is not even plausible.”
