About Three Days Grace

Formed in 1997, Three Days Grace have carved an indelible mark on the modern rock landscape. Emerging from Norwood, Ontario, their distinctive blend of hard-hitting riffs, melodic hooks, and profoundly relatable lyrics quickly propelled them to international stardom. Their self-titled debut album, released in 2003, was a revelation, featuring the massive hit singles “I Hate Everything About You,” “Home,” and “Just Like You,” all of which became staples of rock radio and cemented their reputation as masters of the emotionally charged rock ballad and the blistering hard rock anthem.

Over the subsequent years, the band has consistently delivered a string of successful albums, each showcasing their evolution while retaining the core sonic identity that fans have come to adore. Albums like “One-X” (2006), featuring “Animal I Have Become” and “Pain,” and “Life Starts Now” (2009), with its powerful tracks “The Good Life” and “Break,” further solidified their position as a dominant force in the genre. Their music often delves into themes of struggle, addiction, alienation, and resilience, resonating deeply with a diverse audience.

Following a period of significant change, the band welcomed vocalist Matt Walst, brother of original bassist Brad Walst, who has seamlessly integrated into the band’s dynamic. Under his tenure, Three Days Grace have continued to produce chart-topping material, including singles from their 2015 album “Human” such as “Painkiller” and “I Am Machine,” and their 2018 release “Outsider,” featuring “The Mountain” and “Infra-Red.” Their commitment to crafting potent, singalong-ready rock continues to win them new fans while delighting their long-standing, loyal fanbase.
