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 hitmaking 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.
