MIKE ON MIKE:
My name is Mike Doughty. I'm a singer/songwriter. I live in Brooklyn.
I'm a blogger and photographer, too: go read it at mikedoughty.com/blog . (you can read the blogs here, too.)
I've also written a book of poetry, Slanky and a bunch of plays for The 24 Hour Plays , taken naked pictures for SuicideGirls.com of the fabulous tattooed model Twwly , wrote an Aquaman story for DC Comics' Bizarro World , and among some other music writing, had a piece included in the Da Capo Press Best Music Writing series.
These days, I'm hanging out waiting for the release of my new album Golden Delicious , produced by Dan Wilson in the mythic realm of Minneapolis. Many shows will follow.
My last album, Haughty Melodic , got played on the radio a whole lot, and was on the TV shows Grey's Anatomy and Veronica Mars .
And yeah, I used to be The Guy From Soul Coughing . I quit the band in 2000, against the advice of every sensible person I knew, and took off in a rental car (9000 miles by myself on my first tour) to be a roving acoustic-izer.
Thanks for dropping in. Hope to see you at a show sometime.
Here's me playing "Looking at the World from the Bottom of a Well" on Letterman:
