Benji And Joel Madden (Good Charlotte) Announce New Band

Benji and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte will soon be embarking on a new musical adventure. Aptly titled The Madden Brothers, the siblings’ new band will release their debut album, Greetings From California…, on October 7 through Capitol Records. The outfit will unveil their first single, “We Are Done,” on June 2; it will be accompanied by a lyric video.

According to sources, the group’s freshman effort will be split into two sides, each with its own distinct sound. Long-time collaborator Eric Valentine (Taking Back Sunday, Third Eye Blind) will helm one side, while Grammy Award-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The White Stripes, The Strokes) will captain the other.

“The idea was to not hide behind a band name or a genre, but rather to write some songs, and find someone to record them and help us deliver the truest picture of who we are musically,” said Benji Madden.

It’s been some time since we’ve heard from the Madden brothers, and we here at UTG are excited to see what they’ve been up to. If you are too, let us know in the comments below.
