Patti Stefani's mother, Patti (née Flynn), was an accountant before becoming a housewife, and her father, Dennis Stefani, worked for Yamaha. Todd and Eric are Stefani's brothers, while Jill is her sister.
No Doubt, a ska band that Stefani's brother Eric formed, approached Stefani in 1986 about becoming the vocalist. Keyboardist Eric was in the band. In 1992, the band released their debut studio album, which was entitled self-titled. They signed to Interscope Records in 1991.
In 1995, grunge music was more popular, but No Doubt's third album Tragic Kingdom (1995) featured the single "Don't Speak", which led the Hot 100 Airplay year-end chart for two years after its release in 1997.
After receiving a Grammy nomination, and selling over 16 million copies worldwide by 2004, the album was certified gold. A year after their albums "Return of Saturn" and "Rock Steady" were released, No Doubt released "Return of Saturn 2".
Grammy Awards were won by the songs "Hey Baby" and "Underneath It All" from Rock Steady. Stefani branched out and began working on other projects even as No Doubt experienced mainstream success. Her collaborations with the Brian Setzer Orchestra include "You're the Boss"; "South Side" with Moby; and "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" with Eve, which won a Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration in 2002.
