Formed in Escatawpa, Miss., the resilient five-some known as 3 Doors Down has blazed a trail as the quintessential rock band.  They have attained massive mainstream success without losing that small-town identity that has branded them rock's truest underdogs.  Part swagger/part tireless road warriors, the band has branded an arsenal of battle-tested radio gems like their breakthrough anthem, "Kryptonite."   The band has earned a wall-full of accolades that are firmly cemented into rock's record books including 13 million albums sold, three multi-platinum albums, six No. 1 hits and multiple Billboard and other awards.


Staind, the Massachusetts band featuring Aaron Lewis (vocals/guitar), Mike Mushok (guitar), Jon Wysocki (drums/percussion) and Johnny April (bass/vocals), has earned its place as one of the most successful rock bands of the new millennium.  In the past decade, the band has sold more than 12 million records worldwide, had four No. 1 singles on mainstream rock radio, six additional singles have broken the Top 10 and they've watched their last three albums debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Album Chart.  Led by Lewis, the band progressed through their double-platinum major label debut Dysfunction in 1999, and into the new millennium with a succession of multi-platinum follow-ups including Break The Cycle in 2001, 14 Shades of Grey in 2003 and Chapter V in 2005.


Channeling the spirit of '80s arena rock, Hinder features Austin Winkler (vocals), Mark King (guitar), Blower (guitar), Mark Rodden (bass) and Cody Hanson (drums).  They released their Universal Records debut, Extreme Behavior, in September 2005 and the album went triple platinum and spent more than 70 weeks on Billboard Magazine's Top 200.   The band's single and monster hit "Lips Of An Angel" reached No. 1 on Top 40 radio and was recognized as Active Rock radio's most popular rock single of 2006.   Hinder is currently in the studio recording its sophomore release, once again with producer Brian Howes.
