(Frontman of SOUL COUGHING)

M Doughty's appearance is a rare treat to see him perform outside of his band Soul Coughing.
The band formed in New York city, having a musical background of neo-beat, aesthetic, stretching from avant-garde jazz to hip-hop, propelled into popularity via the band's searing rock groove and M Doughty's insightful observations.
Their debut album 'Ruby Vroom' (London Records) was seen as an east coast answer to Beck's 'Mellow Gold' album.
They are known as a genre-bending group, of disparate backgrounds in the New York underground, who broke out of the experimental art-rock ghetto and developed a commanding live show. 'Ruby Vroom' sold over 150,000 copies and was produced by Tchad Blake (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello, Sheryl Crow) and ploughed the furrow for their better selling second and third albums - 'Super Bon Bon' and 'Irresistable Bliss' respectively. They played a residency at the ultra-hip and famous 'CBGB's' venue in New York and toured with Jeff Buckley. Ronnies welcome such a truly creative and individual singer/songwriter.
