Third Eye Blind - Biography

07-07-2006 20:34 | 0 reaction(s) | add reply
Since 1997, San Francisco’s Third Eye Blind have recorded three best-selling albums and assembled one career retrospective. 3EB will release ’Ursa Major’, their first studio collection in five years, on 18 August, 2009.

Led by Stephan Jenkins, 3EB won wide success during a tumultuous group of years when the major-label recording industry was finally losing its grip on an enterprise that for decades it had dominated with steely efficiency. Nothing could have made 3EB happier! 3EB, however, have experienced no comparable loss. Instead, they have gained artistic clarification -- and, surprisingly, a fan base larger than ever.

Participation in the older, untouchable realm of nervous star-making and could color a band’s identity. In the case of 3EB, it often blurred the perception of their brilliant musical creations. In recent years, those creations have recast the band among a current generation of fans.

3EB now write, tour, record, and communicate in a fluid new world where their music continues naturally to evolve. Their exchange with their audience is unfiltered.

The band consists of: Stephan Jenkins (Vocals, Guitar), Tony Fredinelli (Lead Guitar, vocals) and Brad Hargreaves (Drums, percussion). Abe Millet is the current bassist, filling in for Arion Salazar. Kevin Cadogan, released under controversial conditions in 2000, was the original lead guitarist.
