The biggest global rock band in Australia– then disappeared from the music scene. Rob Thomas hosts this episode of Behind the Hits and talks us through the Matchbox Twenty story – from instant success and world domination to disappearing without a trace and now making a triumphant return.
Rob discusses the unique way they created their new ‘Where the Light Goes’ album, and how the band navigates the world of social media in the 2020s. Ahead of their highly-anticipated 2024 tour, he reveals the luxuries the band enjoy on tour and explains how to curate the perfect concert setlist.
He also reacts to old archival interview audio of himself from the 90s and 00s and updates us on his views.
