The band have endured a number of changes in personnel over their career, and have embarked on a few hiatuses over the years, due in part to the success of three-time Grammy Award-winner and frontman Thomas' solo career. Similar success followed with their second and third albums, Mad Season (2000) and More Than You Think You Are (2002), which both launched hit singles and were certified quadruple-platinum and double-platinum, repectively. It didn't take long for the group to find huge success within the industry, both critcally and commercially: their 1996 debut album was a mainstream hit, certified 12-times platinum (diamond) in the US and multi-platinum in Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. A continuation of the legacy of Orlando band Tabitha's Secret, Matchbox Twenty was formed in 1995 by vocalist and piano player Rob Thomas, bass guitarist Brian Yale, drummer Paul Doucette, lead guitarist Kyle Cook and rythm guitarist Adam Gaynor.
