Breaking Benjamin are no strangers to the upper echelons of the rock charts. Since bursting onto the scene with 2002's Saturate, the band has amassed an impressive string of mainstream rock radio hits, with ten songs hitting #1, numerous platinum and multi-platinum songs and albums, 8.5 billion combined streams worldwide and a social imprint of over 6.5 million -- a testament to the band's global influence and loyal fan base. Their most recent release, AURORA, gave Breaking Benjamin their 10th #1 song at rock radio with "Far Away ft. Scooter Ward." Breaking Benjamin's last studio album, EMBER debuted at #3 on the Billboard Top 200 and marked the multiplatinum band's fourth Top 5 debut on the Billboard Top 200, following 2015's #1 debut for DARK BEFORE DAWN (Gold), 2009's DEAR AGONY (Platinum) at #4 and 2006's PHOBIA (Platinum) at #2. EMBER spun off two #1 hits at Active Rock Radio with "Red Cold River" and "Torn in Two." AURORA and EMBER charted Top 10 across numerous countries worldwide and topping #1 charts across multiple genres, including Top Alternative Albums, Top Rock Albums, Top Hard Rock Albums and Top Digital Albums.
Staind is comprised of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Aaron Lewis, lead guitarist Mike Mushok, bassist and backing vocalist Johnny April, and drummer Sal Giancarelli. The band was formed in 1995 in their hometown of Springfield, Massachusetts. Over the course of their career, Staind has released eight studio albums and twelve top 10 singles, selling over 15 million albums worldwide. Break the Cycle, released in 2001 and RIAA certified 5x platinum, featured the smash single, "It's Been Awhile," one of the most played songs in modern rock radio history, spending 20 weeks at number 1. In 2023, Staind released their first studio album in twelve years, Confessions of the Fallen, which debuted number 1 on Billboard's Rock Album chart, and spawned two number 1 singles at rock radio.
