Dan Reynolds and Andrew Tolman started the band Imagine Dragons back in 2008 while attending Bringham University. At the time they were classified as an Indi-Rock band and they were appearing at small gigs around Las Vegas.

The band hit its big break when the lead singer of Train was unable to perform in Las Vegas due to illness. Talk about being thrown into the deep end. They went from being the opening act at small events to headlining for more than 26,000 people!

Unfortunately, the original group of five did not stay together for very long. But by 2012 Imagine Dragons officially became the band that we know and love today. Dan Reynolds is the only one of the original five to continue with the band and bring it to its chart-topping status.

Once the original members started dropping off, Reynolds needed to find ways to keep the music alive. Luckily, he had an old high school friend, Wayne Sermon, who could play an epic riff on a guitar.

Sermon later invited fellow Berklee Alumni, Daniel Platzman and Ben Mckee, who became the drummer and bassist of Imagine Dragons respectively.

The best part of this was that they all knew each other before having to work with each other. Not only that but they all had similar interests and were willing to relocate to Las Vegas permanently to pursue their collective dream for the band.
