Third Eye Blind Biography

The American rock band known as Third Eye Blind was established in San Francisco in the early 1990’s by founding members Kevin Cadogan and Stephan Jenkins. The two musicians had started writing music together after a chance meeting at a show, and recorded their first demo in 1993. Within a few years, Third Eye Blind had signed with Elektra Records and entered the studio to prepare for a major label debut.

The result, the self-titled Third Eye Blind, arrived in 1997 and was a huge success. The album rose to the number twenty-five spot on the mainstream charts in the United States and spawned the hit alternative singles: “Semi-Charmed Life,” “Graduate,” and “How’s It Going to Be.” The album also earned Third Eye Blind a Billboard Music Award for Best Modern Rock Track (for “Semi-Charmed Life”); three California Music Awards for Best Album, Best Debut, and Best Songwriting; and two American Music Award nominations for Favorite Alternative Artist and Favorite Pop/Rock New Artist.

Following their successful debut, Third Eye Blind released the additional albums: Blue (1999), Out of the Vein (2003), and Ursa Major (2009.) Following a six-year hiatus, Third Eye Blind recently returned with the 2015 album Dopamine, featuring the singles “Everything Is Easy” and “Get Me Out of Here.”

Third Eye Blind continues to perform and record with the current lineup of Stephan Jenkins, Brad Hargreaves, Kryz Reid, Alex Kopp, and Alex LeCavalier. The group most recently released the EP We Are Drugs in 2016.
