Although grunge was primarily an American phenomenon, London native Gavin Rossdale left his mark on the genre by leading Bush to the forefront of modern rock radio in the mid-'90s. Bush enjoyed considerable popularity in the U.S., where the band's gravelly melodies and rhythmic crunch drove its debut album, Sixteen Stone, to multi-platinum status. Although Rossdale would never match that commercial peak again, he continued to create music throughout the subsequent decade, staying with Bush until their 2002 disbandment and launching additional projects thereafter.
Rossdale was born in London, England, on October 30, 1967. With the help of his older sister's boyfriend, he learned to play bass and later picked up the guitar. Midnight, his first band, saw little success, but Rossdale's luck changed when he met King Blank guitarist Nigel Pulsford at a bar in 1992.
