Benji and Joel Madden are coming home. The founders and frontmen of Good Charlotte and their band mates may have been raised in and around La Plata, but they claim the region as their home. Perhaps there’s no better time than now — after they’ve healed from the burns inflicted by media spotlights — for them to start over, in a way, in the area where they first made their name.

“The last couple years have been a roller coaster ride,” said Benji Madden of the tabloid attention surrounding the band. “We started this band because we just love music, and all anybody wants to talk about is our girlfriends. We just had to take a step back.”
