I was in one of the 90s’ biggest bands and sold 23m records – now I’m a card game inventor
A TOP Nineties rocker has traded in fame and fortune for a full house.
Incubus frontman Brandon Boyd, 47, was the lead vocalist of the American band, with whom he recorded a whopping eight albums.
The California-born star's dulcet tones can be heard on top tracks Wish You Were Here, Drive and Pardon Me.
The band, formed in 1991, delighted fans with their latest release in 2020, with a second EP named Trust Fall (Side B.)
It followed the release of Trust Fall (Side A) in early 2015.
Figures released last year show they had clocked up an impressive 23 million record sales worldwide to date.
Yet despite the huge success, Brandon has his branched out into another career.
He has launched a complex card game - priced at £48 - called Two Doors or, in French. Deux Portes.
Describing the game, Brandon told his Instagram followers the challenge is "An OptiMystic memory game I’ve made based on my painting series ‘Portals’."
Back in 2018, he said: "They’ve just arrived here in LA and it’s so fun!

"Each duo a unique watercolour Portal to be matched by the player with the most keen sense of recollection."
One fan branded the game the "perfect gift" as another admitted they were "so intrigued."
Earlier this week, we reported how a top US pop star had switched singing for stripping.
Jeff Timmons, 50, was a member of Los Angeles pop group 98 Degrees - who recently revealed they will re-form for a fresh tour across America to mark their 25th anniversary.
He is one-quarter of the Invisible Man hitmakers, with the band also including brothers Nick, 49, and Drew Lachey, 47 and Justin Jeffre, 50.
After finding chart fame they went on a hiatus in 2003 - with Jeff embracing his stripping streak eight years later.
He started off in the Chippendales at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas yet will now juggle the group's comeback with his ongoing show, Men Of The Strip.
