Mike Doughty

Mike Doughty (/ˈdoʊtiː/ DOH-tee; born June 10, 1970) is an American singer-songwriter and author. He founded the band Soul Coughing in the 1990s. The son of an army officer — he spent his teenage years living on the grounds of the United States Military Academy at West Point — he came to New York City at age 19 to study poetry at the New School University, where singer-songwriter Ani DiFranco was one of his classmates in Sekou Sundiata's poetry ... course, "The Shape and Nature of Things to Come." While a doorman at the New York club The Knitting Factory (in that era, a hotbed of avant-garde jazz), Doughty founded Soul Coughing. See more [+]
