After the breakup of Sidedoor Johnnies, drummer Mike Skinner moved on to start a solo project of recordings that mostly feature instrumental percussion. With occasional additions of guitar noises, violins, and delicate vocals, Bumble Bear Records released Skinner's debut album, Staring into Space, in 2000. The following year, his second album, entitled 8, came out with some additional studio help from Boys Star Library member Chris Bracco. ~ Mike DaRonco, Rovi
