Glen Phillips (born December 29, 1970) is a songwriter, lyricist, singer and guitarist. He is best known as the singer and songwriter of 1990s alternative rock group Toad the Wet Sprocket.

Phillips began Toad the Wet Sprocket in 1986. By 1988, they had signed with Columbia Records. After recording six albums and playing many major tours, they disbanded in 1998.

During his time in Toad the Wet Sprocket, Phillips was involved in a pop rock project called flapping, Flapping.

Three years later, following the breakup of Toad, Phillips released his first solo album, Abulum, which was a change from the sound that Toad the Wet Sprocket was known for. This was followed up by a self-released live album and solo touring, along with a reunion tour with his former Toad bandmates

In 2004, Phillips, with Nickel Creek, released a long-awaited collaboration as Mutual Admiration Society. The self-titled album had been recorded in 2000 and featured songs written by both Phillips alone and as collaborative efforts, and was released on Sugar Hill Records.

In 2005, Phillips returned to a major label via Universal Records’ Lost Highway imprint and released the critically acclaimed Winter Pays For Summer. The album included the radio single “Duck and Cover,” but Phillips and the label would part ways due to some creative differences.

That is a little strange considering how awesome his solo stuff is

If you haven't heard the new Mr. Lemons CD, then check it out on iTunes. Definitely a laid back listening experience that is a great addition to any Phillips' fans collection. Love it!
