Daughtry is an American Music Award
winning rock band from North Carolina, formed by former American Idol
contestant Chris Daughtry in 2006. Daughtry, himself, didn't have much
of a hand in who was in his new band. Chris's label chose band mates
for Daughtry: Jeremy Brady, 21, a guitarist and at this point no longer in
the band; Josh Steely, 36, as lead guitarist; Josh Paul, 29, as bassist who
also played for Suicidal Tendencies; Joey Barnes, 30, as drummer. Two of
the band members hail from North Carolina - Joey, whom Chris had known for
some time, and Jeremy, who was introduced to him a month before the
audition. Steely and Paul are both from California.
