They were formed in Norwood, Ontario, Canada in 1992, originally under the name Groundswell. The current members of the band are Brad Walst (bass and backing vocals), Neil Sanderson (drums, percussion, keyboards and backing vocals) and Barry Stock (lead guitar). After signing to Jive Records, Three Days Grace has released four studio albums, each at three-year intervals: Three Days Grace in 2003, One-X in 2006, Life Starts Now in 2009, and Transit of Venus in 2012. The first three albums have been RIAA certified platinum, platinum, and gold, respectively, in the United States.
