Imagine Dragons
Daniel Platzman joined the band Imagine Dragons in 2011 alongside bandmates Dan Reynolds, Wayne Sermon, and Ben McKee, quickly making a name for himself as a world-renowned percussionist. After hit-making producer Alex Da Kid signed them to KIDinaKORNER/Interscope, the band made their major-label debut with Continued Silence, a 2012 EP featuring the double-platinum breakthrough single “It’s Time.”
Upon the arrival of the band’s full-length debut Night Visions in late 2012, Imagine Dragons found themselves on a rapid escalation on the charts, landing at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 and selling more than five million copies worldwide. In the past decade, the group has collected four Grammy nominations and one win for Best Rock Performance. After 13 years with Imagine Dragons, Platz departed the band in 2024 to focus on film composing full-time.
