Emerging from the Florida sunshine in 1994, Creed quickly became a cornerstone of the post-grunge movement, captivating a generation with their raw energy and anthemic vocals. Their meteoric rise saw them unleash three consecutive multi-platinum albums, with their 1999 masterpiece, Human Clay, achieving diamond status (11x platinum) – a testament to their undeniable impact.
Creed's signature sound, driven by Scott Stapp's soaring vocals and Mark Tremonti's blistering guitar riffs, resonated with millions worldwide. The band's impressive catalog boasts over 28 million records sold in the US alone, topping 53 million globally, solidifying their place as the ninth best-selling musical act of the 2000s.
Their early albums, My Own Prison and Human Clay, dominated the charts despite lukewarm critical reception. The latter, featuring the chart-topping single "With Arms Wide Open" (a Grammy winner for Best Rock Song), remains one of the best-selling albums of all time.
After the departure of bassist Brian Marshall in 2000, the band released their critically acclaimed Weathered album in 2001, with Tremonti taking on bass duties. Following their disbandment in 2004, Stapp embarked on a successful solo career while the remaining members formed the critically acclaimed band Alter Bridge with Myles Kennedy.
The year 2009 saw Creed's triumphant reunion, culminating in the release of their fourth album, Full Circle, and numerous sold-out tours. Although they went their separate ways again in 2012, Creed's legacy remained strong, captivating fans with their powerful music and intense performances.
After an eleven-year hiatus, Creed returned to the stage in July 2023, igniting a new wave of excitement with the announcement of a headlining tour in 2024. Their unwavering commitment to their music and their loyal fan base ensures that Creed will continue to be a major force in the rock scene for years to come.
