About No Doubt
No Doubt formed in Anaheim in 1986, drawing on ska, punk and new wave. Early founders included Eric and Gwen Stefani and John Spence. After a self-titled debut and the independently released Beacon Street Collection, Tragic Kingdom brought songs such as Just a Girl and Don't Speak to a wider audience. Gwen Stefani, Tony Kanal, Tom Dumont and Adrian Young contributed distinct vocal and instrumental approaches to that period.
