Babyshambles -

After his first rise to fame with The Libertines in early 2000, co-lead-singer Pete Doherty went on to create Babyshambles. Initially a side-project during time-out from The Libertines, Babyshambles have become a band in their own right since his permanent departure from his former band. Known for their chaotic and frenzied live shows and somewhat overshadowed by media interest in Pete Doherty's personal life, Babyshambles have released several top 10 singles and have become a vehicle for Doherty's poetic, rambling, and heartfelt songwriting.
