Rock group

Christian rock group Third Day proved that it deserves the attention of fans and critics after sweeping the Dove Awards in 2001. The group garnered five awards, including wins for Artist of the Year and Group of the Year. The band released the praise and worship album Offerings: A Worship Album in 2000, and the same year contributed to a collaborative effort, City on a Hill: Songs of Worship and Praise. Consistently ranked among the top ten Contemporary Christian artists, Third Day combines an uncompromising evangelism with a dedication to Southern-influenced rock.

The founding members of Third Day—guitarist Mark Lee and singer/guitarist Mac Powell—have been performing together since high school. The two played in a garage band called Nuclear Hoedown in their hometown of Marietta, Georgia, but Powell soon quit the band because he didn’t feel it was what God wanted him to do. Lee contacted Powell after a few weeks to convince him to help create a Christian band, and the two began writing songs that reflected their commitment to Christianity. Joined by a keyboardist, the fledgling group called themselves Third Day to honor the third day after Jesus’ death, the day of his resurrection. The group was originally acoustic and performed

at Sunday schools and for youth groups. In 1992, a pastor introduced Lee and Powell to bassist Tai Anderson and drummer David Carr. The four met lead guitarist Brad Avery in 1995, and the roster was set. The five members were all in their early- to mid-twenties and dedicated to producing Christian rock.

Third Day worked early on to build regional support, playing shows on the Southern live performance circuit. They became known for their high-energy performances and developed a loyal fan base. Dan Raines, head of Creative Trust, the group’s management firm, told Deborah Evans Price of Billboard, "Before they even had a deal, they had been out there working, playing every dive you can imagine, building an audience at the grass-roots level." The early work paid off, and in 1995, the group signed with local independent label gray dot records and released its first album, titled simply Third Day. The band’s release was the first for the small label, and demand for the album quickly outstripped gray dot’s ability to supply. Third Day then signed on with Arista’s Reunion label, quickly recorded two additional songs, and re-released the debut album.

The major label release of the group’s debut produced a mainstream hit," Nothing At All," which made the top 30 on pop charts. A video for another song from the album," Consuming Fire," won the Billboard Music Video Award in the Contemporary Christian category in 1996. The record also won prime touring spots for the band. They opened for groups such as the Prayer Chain, the Waiting, and Code of Ethics. The group also played at Atlanta Fest, a Christian music festival in their home state.

Third Day’s sound continues to evolve, but core influences include U2 and Lynryd Skynyrd. The group’s early recording was described by Susan Hogan-Albach in the Minneapolis Star Tribune as "Southern folk rock, tinged with pop, blues, bluegrass and country offset by Powell’s throaty vocals." The band was compared to Hootie and the Blowfish, the Gin Blossoms, and frequently to Pearl Jam. With their second album, Third Day played up grunge rock influences. Hogan-Albach noted that Conspiracy No. 5, released in 1997 by Reunion, was characterized by "metal-driven aggression … rife with chunky percussions and electric guitars."

Even as the band grew and changed its sound, Third Day remained committed to the original focus of the project: Christian evangelism. The group’s songs consistently convey a message of faith, and Third Day never gives in to the temptation to write secular lyrics in the hopes of achieving crossover success. Carr told Jim Varsallone of the Tampa Tribune, "We’ve won awards and had top songs … but that’s not our focus…. The focus is on Christ." The group’s focus is maintained even on the road; Third Day travels with John Poitevent, a pastor who prays with the men before and after shows, leads them in Bible study, and counsels the musicians and crew while on tour.

The 1999 release Time was hailed by critics as Third Day’s best album to date. This recording, too, explores new directions for the band musically. Paul Verna noted in Billboard that the band embraces "an earthier, looser sound that delves more deeply into its Southern roots." Powell also expressed Third Day’s positive feelings about the recording, telling Jim Minge of the Omaha World Herald that the album was the best the band had yet produced, and noted," we’re a bit better musically and lyrically, too."

The year 2000 held other milestones for the band. Third Day’s new label, Essential Records, specializes in marketing Contemporary Christian acts, and the band was invited to collaborate on a special album called City on a Hill: Songs of Worship and Praise. Third Day recorded the title track, and members of the band collaborated with other Christian rockers on several additional songs. Other leading artists on the album include Sixpence None the Richer, Caedmon’s Call, FFH, and Jars of Clay. Third Day also released their own praise and worship album in 2000 called Offerings: A Worship Album. The album marked a change in the way the band worked; it contains several songs recorded live on tour, as well as additional studio recordings. Included on the album are "Thief," the story of the two other men crucified with Jesus, and "King of Kings," about the impossibility of knowing God. Third Day released a "worship kit" to complement the album; containing lyrics, chords, and transparencies, the kit is intended to help youth groups and ministers use the album as part of worship.

Offerings proved to be another hit with critics as well as with audiences. The album went gold after just a few months and collected not only a Dove Award for Praise & Worship Album of the Year in 2001, but also a Grammy Award nomination. Deborah Evans Price of Billboard had nothing but the highest praise for Offerings, saying that the album "teems with passion and spiritual commitment." Price further noted that the release includes "beautiful praise and worship songs as well as tunes that stretch the boundaries of worship music in a wonderful way."

As rising stars in one of the fastest growing segments of popular music in the United States, Third Day is poised for even greater success. While playing AtlantaFest in 1996 was a breakthrough for the band, headlining the four-day festival in 2001 marked an even greater level of success for Third Day. That success, Anderson told John Blake of the Atlanta Journal and Constitution, has brought new challenges: "It’s an interesting place to be…. It’s easier to sit back and kind of pick out the problems of Christian music as an underdog. Now that we’re successful, we are Christian music, and it’s up to us to raise the bar."

Biography

Influenced by the Southern rock of Lynyrd Skynyrd and other artists such as U2 and Rich Mullins, Third Day were originally formed by vocalist Mac Powell and acoustic guitarist Mark Lee. The duo added bassist Tai Anderson and drummer David Carr from another local band, and recorded some demos. Third Day's live shows gradually built a loyal fan base, and just after lead guitarist Brad Avery joined, the band signed to Gray Dot Records. Their eponymous debut followed in 1996, with Conspiracy No. 5 appearing a year later. In 1999 Third Day returned with Time, and the next year Offerings, a collection of new and live material, came out, followed in 2003 by its companion, Offerings II: All I Have to Give. That same year, the American Music Awards tapped them with a nomination in the Favorite Contemporary Inspirational Artist category. For their fifth studio album, 2004's Wire (which was followed shortly after by Live Wire), Third Day returned to their rock & roll roots, a trend they kept up for 2005's Top Ten hit Wherever You Are, which came out in CD/DVD format the next year. After the release of the holiday album Christmas Offerings in 2006 and the compilation Chronology the following year, the band announced the departure of Avery in February 2008. Despite the loss, Third Day soldiered on, releasing Revelation in July of that year. The album was produced by Howard Benson and featured appearances by Chris Daughtry and Lacey Mosley. They followed the record up in 2010 with the late October release of Move. ~ John Bush, Rovi

Third Day is a Grammy award-winning Christian rock band formed in Marietta, Georgia during the 1990s. The band was founded by lead singer Mac Powell, guitarist Mark Lee and former member Billy Wilkins.[1] The other band members are bassist Tai Anderson and drummer David Carr. The band's name is a reference to the biblical account of Jesus' rising from the dead on the third day following his crucifixion. The band was inducted in the Georgia Music Hall of Fame on September 19, 2009.[2]

History

In 1992, Mac Powell and Mark Lee were playing at Lee's church the same night that David Carr & Tai Anderson played with a band called Bullard Family Singers. Once introduced, the group took to each other quickly and Carr & Anderson were invited to join the band.[1]

In 1993, while remaining in school, the band started playing more aggressively around Atlanta and saved $3,000 to record a full-length album. Also, during this time, Wilkins, who was working full-time as a school teacher, decided to leave the band.[3] Third Day continued to work on their album, recording at Furies Studios in Atlanta. With the production help of Carr, Long Time Forgotten was finally released in 1994 with 2,000 copies available.[4] In 1995, the band started looking for a second guitarist and after hearing Brad Avery play with singer Chris Carder, Avery was asked to audition with the band. After playing Consuming Fire during their first rehearsal, Avery was officially asked to join the band.

As the band rounded off its line-up, at that time, Mark Lee had made difficult decision to quit the band, yet never really went through with it, to pursue a full time college load at Georgia Tech. So the band was found by and selected guitarist August McCoy. McCoy later went on to write & recorded with artists such as Sammy Ward, Brothers-n-Christ, and Sunsol; he is also seen reuniting after 13 years on the 2007 "Revelations" CD/DVD combo release. August McCoy is officially "The most forgotten & left out of the Third Day Legend" since he 'was' an official member at that time and appears in the line-up on the "Contagious" CD release and is firstly thanked in the subsequent Gray dot release of the band's next self-titled release) August McCoy ended up being the one to leave for college, exiting the band, when they started playing more steadily in venues around the Southeast. While playing in a Marietta, Georgia at the Strand Theatre, the owners offered the band a contract to sign with a new independent record label called Gray Dot Records. With recording contract in-hand, the band released the album Third Day, which ended up selling 20,000 copies. Shortly after, Reunion Records bought out their Grey Dot contract and signed the band to a multi-album deal.[5]

Reunion Records

Once under contract, Reunion Records immediately released the now official version of Third Day. The record has sold over 300,000 copies and was well received by critics. The album also yielded their only mainstream rock radio hit in the U.S., "Nothing at All", which peaked at No. 34 on the Billboard rock charts.[6] Later the same year, Christian music headliner Newsboys asked Third Day to open for them at five of their West Coast shows. At the same time, they launched their own 65-city tour with All Star United and Seven Day Jesus opening for them. The band's successful debut was culminated with being nominated for a Dove Award in the category of New Artist of the Year and their video for Consuming Fire winning a Billboard Music Award in the category of Best Christian Video.[7]

In the winter of 1997, the band started working on their second album, Conspiracy No. 5. The album was produced by Sam Taylor, who had previously worked with King's X and other Christian bands. The album was nominated for a Grammy and won Dove Awards for Rock Album of the Year and Rock Song of the Year ("Alien").[8] The following year, the band dedicated exclusively to touring around the United States, both alone and again opening for Newsboys. Also in 1998, the band recorded a cover of Michael W.Smith's Agnus Dei for his Dove Award-winning compilation project Exodus.

International success

In 1998, the band started working on their next project titled Time under the production of Monroe Jones. They had compiled approximately 30 songs to choose from during the last year and ended up choosing ten for the new album. Time was also nominated for a Grammy Award and won another Dove Award for the band. Some of the songs that were recorded for possible inclusion in the album, but were left out during production, can be found in the EP Southern Tracks.[9] During the band's live shows, the worship portion of the concert was becoming more "powerful", prompting the band to release an album made up exclusively of worship songs. The subsequent album was entitled Offerings: A Worship Album and took about a week to record. In 2000 to support both Time and Offerings, Third Day went on tour alongside Jennifer Knapp. Later the same year, the band also collaborated on the project City on a Hill: Songs of Worship and Praise alongside FFH, Caedmon's Call, Newsboys, Jars of Clay, and others.[10]

In 2001, the band played in Australia and New Zealand on the heels of the success of the Offerings album. While touring in the States, Third Day recorded one of their concerts in Atlanta to be released as their first DVD, The Offerings Experience. The concert was held at the Hi-Fi Buys Amphitheatre with an attendance of close to 15,000 people. That same year, the band won a total of five Dove Awards as well as their first Grammy. They closed the year with the release of their fifth studio album, Come Together, which won two Dove Awards and one more Grammy. The album was certified gold the next year, along with Time.[11][12] The band appeared in the 2002 film "Joshua", the movie version of the Joseph Girzone novel of the same name. The Third Day song My Hope is You was included in the Joshua soundtrack album. In 2003, the band released a follow-up to their hit worship CD Offerings entitled Offerings II: All I Have to Give.

In 2004, the band released their seventh album, Wire, and toured the States with tobyMac and Warren Barfield. In June of the same year, the band traveled to Europe for a two-week tour. Upon returning, the band recorded a concert at Louisville and released it as the live album, Live Wire. During that year, they also collaborated on the soundtrack for Mel Gibson's film, The Passion of the Christ, they played at the Republican National Convention, and were featured in the show 60 Minutes.[13] In January 2007, the band played one night each in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney, Australia.[14]

Recent years

Their next album, Wherever You Are, debuted on the Billboard 200 at No. 8.[15] It also won the band their third Grammy. This success was followed in 2006 by the release of their first holiday album, Christmas Offerings, and in 2007 with the first compilations of their hits entitled Chronology. Their next studio album called Revelation was released July 29, 2008. On February 28, 2008, Third Day released a statement announcing Brad Avery's departure from the band after 13 years and over 1000 concerts.[16] According to the official press release, Avery left the band to pursue solo projects and Third Day would not replace him, instead continuing on as a quartet.

Following Avery's departure, the band performed at the April, 2008 Papal Youth Rally at St. Joseph's Seminary in Yonkers, NY. Supporting the release of their new album Revelation, on July 29, 2008 the band appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno where they performed the album's first single Call My Name and on November 20, 2008 they appeared on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson performing the album's title track. The song This Is Who I Am off the Revelation album also appears in EA Sports NASCAR video game NASCAR 09, though the album was released over a month after the game. "Call My Name" hit No. 1 and was the 5th most-played song on R&R magazine's Christian CHR chart for 2008.[17]

Third Day was inducted into the Georgia Music Hall Of Fame on September 19, 2009. They released Live Revelations, a live CD/DVD version of the Revelation album, in April. In December 2009, Third Day was nominated for 3 Grammys: One for Best Rock or Rap Gospel Album for Live Revelations and their single "Born Again" received 2 Grammy nods for Best Gospel Performance and Best Gospel Song. They won the Best Rock or Rap award, thus winning their fourth career Grammy. Live Revelations achieved Gold status in April, becoming the band's eighth album to go gold.

Third Day was featured on Winter Jam 2010, touring alongside Newsboys, Fireflight, Tenth Avenue North, and others. After releasing the single, "Lift Up Your Face", in July, Third Day released their ninth studio album, Move, on October 19, 2010. On October 30 they finished the World Vision-sponsored tour "Make a Difference Tour 2010" with TobyMac, Michael W. Smith, Jason Gray and Max Lucado in Fayetteville, NC.[18] Their song Follow Me There, off Move, is the featured as the theme song to the TLC Television show Sarah Palin's Alaska which debuted in 2010.

We appreciate Brad’s many contributions to the band's career to date, including his work on our forthcoming album, but the time has come for us to follow our separate paths. He has been an important part of Third Day for the last 13 years as we've traveled the world together and performed over 1,000 concerts. We will miss him as a band member but he will always remain our brother and our friend. Brad is a wonderful person, gifted songwriter and talented musician. We trust that God has amazing plans for his future." Avery left the band on February 28, 2008.
