Imagine ড্রাগন

Standing on-stage Thursday night at the Hollywood Palladium, Dan Reynolds of Imagine ড্রাগন looked out at a capacity crowd and ব্যক্ত with astonishment, “I don’t even know how this many people know about us.”

His bandmates had a hunch, however. That was the moment they powered up “Radioactive,” the moody electro-grunge single that tops three of Billboard’s rock charts and sits at No. 9 on the Hot 100, nestled comfortably between tunes দ্বারা রিহানা and Bruno Mars. It’s this Las Vegas group’s সেকেন্ড big radio smash following “It’s Time,” which set a record last বছর as the longest-running...

How would আপনি like to spend an evening with Imagine Dragons?

Were আপনি like me … hoping to get tickets to see this incredible, homegrown band perform in their old stomping grounds, only to be shut down দ্বারা a Sold Out sign? All because আপনি waited just a bit too long to order your tickets.

Imagine Dragons, the latest Utah Valley band to discover international success, makes a triumphant return from their sell-out European tour to perform on May 20 at the UCCU Center in Orem.

The indie rock band formed in 2008 when lead guitarist Wayne Sermon, from American Fork, met Las Vegas native and lead singer...

It’s the stuff of dreams, Imagine Dragon’s chart-soaring 2012 LP Night Visions. Based largely on the subconscious nonsense that comes during deep sleep, the album—and singles “It’s Time” and “Radioactive,” both of which reached the শীর্ষ 20 on Billboard’s Hot 100 list—struck a chord nationally and launched the Las Vegas-based band into stardom.


We wanted to chat with these skyrocketing stars, but not in the typical fashion. আপনি know those silly প্রশ্ন that some interviewers sneak in at the end of an interview with a band? Well, Beside the প্রশ্ন is a blog series at CityWeekly.net...

I saw Imagine ড্রাগন over three years পূর্বে at the Velour, a dimly lit and intimate সঙ্গীত hovel in downtown Provo. That stage was small, the building had a 250 person capacity and the band was one that seemed to still be finding its direction. That was not the same band I saw tonight playing for a crowd of over 8,000 in a full-blown rock প্রদর্শনী at the UCCU Events Center.

I’m not talking about the changes they’ve made to their lineup. The Imagine ড্রাগন of today are a fully realized indie rock ensemble whose অনুরাগী base has grown exponentially since...

Yahoo!, the mammoth online portal, is in the সঙ্গীতানুষ্ঠান biz now, with a new tour that played the Pageant on Wednesday night.
Yahoo! On the Road is hitting 27 cities; the twist is that each city gets a different headliner. John Legend, Kendrick Lamar, Fall Out Boy, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis and the Lumineers are among the headliners in various cities. Imagine ড্রাগন and Owl City performed at the St. Louis stop.

Imagine ড্রাগন sold out the Pageant in March; Owl City also played the Pageant in March in a separate show, making the Yahoo! On the Road selections for St. Louis look a little unfair....

In its four-hear history, MTV's Musical March Madness tournament has seen no shortage of সিন্ড্রেলা stories — Owl City's unlikely ride to the Sweet 16 in 2010, Disturbed's dream run to the Final Four in '11, F---ed Up's shocking upsets of Mumford & Sons and Radiohead last বছর — but eventually, the clock strikes midnight, the carriage transforms back into a কুমড়া and the glass slipper shatters.

In other words, they've each come up short in their quest for the championship. But with the 2013 MMM tournament set to tip off Monday, March 18, there's a whole new group of upset-minded upstarts...
