Rob Thomas, lead singer of Matchbox 20, has released his first solo album,...Something To Be, successfully proving that he can stand on his own as a musician and songwriter.
The next song is “I Am An Illusion” and it is one of the darker selections, as evidenced by the opening sample of “O Death” by Bessie Jones, and an impressive guest performance by Robert Randolph on lap steel guitar.
In Matchbox 20, he might feel compelled to perform a certain way, but with the help of producer Matt Serletic, he is free to express himself to the best of his ability, and with no boundaries.

 CANOE -- JAM! Music - Artists - Thomas, Rob: Rob Thomas gets funky: review
Thomas was in fine voice and slowly prowled the stage in running shoes that might have been the same ones he wore when fronting the Matchbox crew in the full arena format in 2004.
Thomas stresses Matchbox Twenty is still a band, and he did the solo album because they took a break, and not vice versa.

 Artist Profile - Rob Thomas
Independent of the band, Rob's growing reputation as an exceptional songwriter has led to invitations to collaborate with a select list of artists - most notably Santana, for whom he wrote and sang the multiple Grammy-winning "Smooth." But despite his remarkable achievements, Rob found himself at a crossroads.
Working without the safety net of four other "censors," as Rob calls his matchbox bandmates, proved to be both a liberating and challenging experience.
Equally important to Rob as the diversity of the album's sounds and styles was that it not be a mere collection of songs, but reflect a personal and musical journey.

 Rob Thomas : interview
Thomas pre empts my enquiry with the best rock star cliché I've heard in many years: "As for the future of the band, I don't really see this as the end for us at all, in fact it's more of a new beginning really."
As for their energetic live sets, Rob feels this is where he connects most with his audience: "It's all about that moment you created when you wrote the song in your bedroom and then you get to share that with so many people.

 Rob Thomas Out With Sennheiser
Chris Sharp, monitor engineer for Rob Thomas who is currently touring the U.S. with Sennheiser EW300IEMG2 wireless personal monitor systems and an SKM935G2 series RF microphone and EM550G2 dual-channel receiver, has observed several major improvements with the more widespread use of wireless monitors.
But the difference between Thomas' Sennheiser personal monitor system—which includes Ultimate Ears molds—and the brand that the rest of the band is using is "a night and day difference," says Sharp.
Sharp's goal is to get every musician on personal monitors, he says, not only for the health aspect, but also because of the control it provides the FOH mixer.
