The band originally consisted of Brad Arnold (vocals/drums), Todd Harrell (bass guitar) and Matt Roberts (guitar).They were soon joined by guitarist Chris Henderson, and later by drummer Richard Liles, who played for the band during their tour supporting their first album. Daniel Adair played drums on tour from 2002–2005. This configuration played nearly 1,000 shows across the world following the release of their hugely successful ''Away from the Sun'' album. In 2005, when Adair was hired full-time by Nickelback, Greg Upchurch (Puddle of Mudd) joined to play drums full-time. In 2012, original guitarist Matt Roberts departed due to health issues. Chet Roberts, who was formerly Chris Henderson's guitar tech, took his spot. In 2013, Harrell was ejected from the band after being charged with vehicular homicide. Bassist Justin Biltonen replaced him. The band rose to international fame with their first single, "Kryptonite", which charted in the top three on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart. The band then signed onto Republic Records and released their debut album, ''The Better Life'', in 2000. The album was the 11th-best-selling album of the year and was certified 6x platinum in the United States. Their second album, ''Away from the Sun'', (2002) continued the band's success; it debuted at No. 8 on the ''Billboard'' 200 chart, went multi-platinum in the United States like its predecessor, and spawned the hits "When I'm Gone" and "Here Without You". The band followed it up by extensive touring for two years before releasing their third album, ''Seventeen Days'', in 2005. The album debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart and was certified platinum within its first month of release. Their fourth, self-titled album, ''3 Doors Down'' (2008), also debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart. The band's fifth studio album, ''Time of My Life'' (2011) debuted at No. 3 at the charts. The band has shared the stage with artists such as Daughtry, Megadeth, Staind, Nickelback, Three Days Grace, Alter Bridge, Breaking Benjamin, Seether, Shinedown, Hinder, Mentors, ZZ Top, and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Since the start of their career, 3 Doors Down have sold over 20 million albums worldwide. ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「3 Doors Down」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
