三門倒樂隊新磚來襲~3 Doors Down來自美國密西西比州比洛克西城（Biloxi）附近的小鎮Escatawpa，他們是靠著一首成名單曲和很多在當地受歡迎的現場演唱會而逐漸走紅的。由Brad Arnold (主唱，1978年12月27日出生)，Todd Harrell (貝司手)，Matt Roberts(吉他手)，Chris Henderson (吉他手)和Daniel Adair (鼓手)組成。1996年這三個好朋友組建了這支樂隊。因為當時成員有3個，所以3（trio）就成為了他們的名字的組成部分之一，同時他們在亞拉巴馬州的一個建筑上看到了“Doors Down”這個讓他們喜愛的短語，所以樂隊就被最后命名為3 Doors Down。
1998年，以前和Harrell的舊樂隊一起演奏過的Henderson加入了3 Doors Down演奏吉他。之后，以前曾經在錄音棚里給樂隊當過鼓手的Adair也加入了樂隊，這使主唱Brad終于可以擺脫兼職鼓手束縛，站到臺前。
2000年，樂隊于2月發行了第一張專集《The Better Life》。并且獲得了600萬白金銷量的不小成功（現在樂隊已成立了The Better Life基金會，專門為需要食品、庇護所和醫療保障的兒童募集基金，基金將每年定期捐助到各個組織和醫院）。這張專集在那一年的大多數時間曾一度排在各排行榜的榜首。
2003年，樂隊又推出了新專集《Away From The Sun》。這張專集無疑比《The Better Life》更進了一步，專集發行不到一周便登上了Billboard排名前200中的第8名。并且在一個月之內就達到了黃金銷量，而后又突破了白金銷量。當然這都得歸功于其中非常成功的單曲When I'm Gone。

3 Doors Down first found their own voice in 1995. It’s only gotten louder over the past two decades. Everything kicked off with their 2000 debut, The Better Life. The album went six-times platinum and introduced the world to their now-classic “Kryptonite.” Their fan base continued to grow with 2002’s triple-platinum Away from the Sun—which yielded the smashes “When I’m Gone” and “Here Without You.” Both 2005’s platinum-certified Seventeen Days and 3 Doors Down [2008] bowed at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 followed by Time of My Life’s #3 debut in 2011. In between countless sold out shows, the guys notched three Grammy Award? nods, scored two American Music Awards, and received a total of five BMI Pop Awards, including an award for Brad for BMI “Songwriter of the Year.” 2003 saw the group begin a tradition of giving back in a big way with the launch of their The Better Life Foundation [TBLF]. The organization has lived up to its name by giving as many children as possible a better life and supporting Center of the Prevention of Child Abuse, Habitat for Humanity, and various other charities. Its annual concert has hosted everyone from Lynyrd Skynyrd and Sara Evans to Staind, Shinedown, and Alter Bridge.
