==History==
In 1986, Eric Stefani, brother of Gwen Stefani, and John Spence met at a Dairy Queen and talked about forming a group to make music. Eric decided to be the keyboardist of this group and gathered others to practice with him. Among these are Gwen Stefani, his sister who did the backing vocals, John Spence who did the lead vocals, Jerry McMahon as the guitarist, Chris Leal as the bassist, Chris Webb as the drummer, Gabriel Gonzalez who played the trumpet along with Alan Meade, and Tony Meade who played the saxophone. They practiced in Eric's parents' garage.
Soon after, Tony Kanal, Paul Casely and Eric Carpenter joined the group as the group's bassist, trombonist and saxophonist respectively. Tony was dating Gwen but they kept their relationship, feeling that it was an unspoken rule that no one in the band date her. On June 6, 1987, the group performed at an Orange High School backyard graduation party with two other Californian ska bands. Video clips from the party appeared on VH1's Behind the Music.
In December 1987, the band's lead vocalist John Spence died by suicidehttps://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/gwen-stefani-john-spence-no-doubt-dead-tribute-1235191166/, several days before the band was to play a gig at The Roxy Theatre for record industry employees. After the incident, the band disbanded but soon regrouped with Alan Meade taking over as the lead vocalist. Soon after, Alan left the band and Gwen took over as the lead vocalist. The band managed to develop a live following in California. In early 1988, Tom Dumont left Rising, a heavy metal band and joined No Doubt, replacing Jerry McMahon as the band's guitarist. Adrian Young replaced Chris Webb as their drummer the following year. During this time period, No Doubt played gigs at a number of places including local colleges, Fender's Grand Ballroom, The Whisky, The Roxy, many shows with The Untouchables, Fishbone, and even a show with the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
===Debut Album===
In 1990, the band signed with the newly created Interscope Label and released their self-titled debut album through the label. The album however was not supported by the label and was considered a commercial failure, selling only about 30000 copies. As a result, Interscope refused to support No Doubt's tour or further recordings. The band responded by recording on their own during 1993 and 1994 and produced their self-released Beacon Street Collection, which was more punk-inspired than the debut.
===Breakthrough===
In 1995, the band released their album Tragic Kingdom which allowed them to achieve mainstream success with singles like Just A Girl, Spiderwebs and Don't Speak which was about Gwen and Tony's break-up . The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart for 16 non-consecutive weeks. The band went on a 27-month international tour to support the release of the album. No Doubt managed to secure 4 Grammy nominations, for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal, Song of the Year, Best Rock Album and Best New Artist. With over 16 million sales worldwide, the album was certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
In 2000, the band released their album Return of Saturn, a follow-up to their previous album Tragic kingdom. The album was critically acclaimed but failed to receive the same commercial success, with the lead single not even charting on the Billboard. In 2001, they released their 5th studio album titled Rock Steady. The album had two Grammy-winning songs, Hey Baby and Underneath It All. 
Later in 2003, they continued making music and released an album titled The Singles 1992–2003 which included a cover of the song It's My Life by Talk Talk and managed to secure a Grammy nomination with it. The band later released live versions of their previous albums and toured with artists and bands like Blink-182 in mid-2004, before embarking on a hiatus. The band's lead singer Gwen Stefani went on to have a successful solo career with her debut album Love. Angel. Music. Baby. 
===Reunion and hiatuses===
No Doubt announced on their official website that they would tour in the summer of 2009 with Paramore, The Sounds, Janelle Monáe, Bedouin Soundclash, Katy Perry, Panic! At The Disco, and Matt Costa, all while finishing their upcoming album, which was set for release in 2010.https://www.nme.com/news/music/no-doubt-34-1305770 On June 11, 2012, the band announced on their official website that the new album would be out on September 25.

The band later went on another hiatus and the future of No Doubt was uncertain, but they teased a reunion show on the 16th of January, 2024. It was later announced that they would be performing at Coachella in April 2024.https://people.com/gwen-stefani-talks-amazing-no-doubt-coachella-reunion-exclusive-8550408
