Page "Stewart Copeland" Paragraph 7

In 2000, he combined with Les Claypool of Primus ( with whom he produced a track on the Primus album Antipop ) and Trey Anastasio of Phish to create the band Oysterhead.

That same year, he was approached by director Adam Collis to assemble the score for the film Sunset Strip.

In 2002, Copeland was hired by Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger of The Doors to play with them for a new album and tour, but after an injury sidelined Copeland, the arrangement ended in mutual lawsuits.

In 2005, Copeland released " Orchestralli ", a live recording of chamber ensemble music which he had composed during a short tour of Italy in 2002.

Also in 2005, Copeland started Gizmo, a new project with avant-garde guitarist David Fiuczynski.

The band made their U. S debut on September 16, 2006 at the Modern Drummer Drum Festival.

In January 2006, Copeland premiered his film about the Police called Everyone Stares: The Police Inside Out at the Sundance Film Festival.

In February and March, he appeared as one of the judges on the BBC television show Just the Two of Us ( a role he later reprised for a second series in January 2007 ).
