History

edit

Formative years: 1996–1998

edit

3 Doors Down initially consisted ofBrad Arnoldas the lead vocalist and drummer, Matt Roberts as the lead guitarist and backing vocalist, and Todd Harrell as the bass guitarist. The band began to perform outsideEscatawpa, Mississippi,eventually coming up with their official name during a trip toFoley, Alabama.When the three were walking through the town, they saw a building where some letters had fallen off its sign, reading "Doors Down". Since the band consisted of three people at the time, they added the "3" to create "3 Doors Down". The cover of their 2011 albumTime of My Lifehints at the original number of band members (3) and current band members (5); the clock on the album cover reads 3:05.

The three-piece began to record demo material in 1997.[6]The demo recording sessions took place at the Holly House Recording studio inBiloxi, Mississippi.[7]The band's demo songs were mixed and recorded by Clyde Holly, with the recordings being released on a self-titled CD in 1997. 1,000 copies of the demo CD were released initially, with 1,000 more copies being released two years later.[7]When the band gave the CD to local radio stationWCPR-FM,they started playing the demo recording of "Kryptonite"and it became the No. 1 requested song on the station for over 15 weeks.[8]The station's program director sent the song to manager Phin Daly who in turn showed it to Bill McGathy, his employer at In De Goot Entertainment.

Two years after the band formed, Todd Harrell asked rhythm guitarist Chris Henderson to join the band. Prior to joining 3 Doors Down in 1998 as the band's rhythm guitarist, Henderson was in a band named Burning Bridges.[9]The band was booked in New York to perform a showcase at theCBGBmusic club. Daly toldHitQuarters:"Once they got on stage and started playing it was apparent the magic was in the music. So we moved to sign them."[8]

Bush's inauguration. They are good Mississippi and Alabama boys — they come from conservative families. You know, they're really good guys, but they have very different political beliefs. Because they played both Bush's inaugurations, they've obviously been on the conservative radar. "Vail continued that the band's choice to perform had a lot to do with their" God, guns, and country black-and-white sort of viewpoint "and that" they spend a lot of time going to Iraq, doing service, playing for the troops. "[35]In the week following the performance, the band'sThe Greatest Hitscompilation album reentered the Billboard 200 at a new peak of No. 94; the album had debuted and peaked at No. 100 in 2012 and had been off the chart since April 2016.[41]In February 2018, during an interview withDetroit Metro Times,rhythm guitarist Chris Henderson stated about the performance, "it wasn't a Trump thing. That's what people don't understand. It was the inauguration of a president of the United States of America." and "this is history-making stuff. It's a one-in-a-lifetime chance to do something for your country. So that's why we did it."[42]
