There are a number of solo careers from members of 90s bands that you may have never thought existed. Examples from around this period include Thom Yorke of Radiohead and Jarvis Cocker of Pulp.
Another example is this man, Richard Hawley. The question you may be thinking though is what band was he a member of? The answer is Longpigs, a 90s Britpop band who had a total of 5 Top 40 hits but never got any higher than 16.
He therefore had the advantage that he'd be known by the Britpop fans who would have probably helped this single scrape into the Top 40. The disadvantage was that his former band weren't exactly one of the big ones.
It would be his only Top 40 hit, but in terms of actual releases he's been quite prolific over the years.
