Diamond-certified Grammy Award-winning band Imagine Dragons has been awarded the SoundExchange Hall of Fame Award for being among one of the most-streamed creators in the organization’s 20-year history.
“Imagine Dragons is one of those bands that you know will be around a long time,” said Michael Huppe, President and CEO of SoundExchange. “Since their 2012 debut, they’ve churned out hit songs like ‘Radioactive,’ ‘Demons,’ and ‘Believer’ that continue to influence their genre. SoundExchange is happy to recognize Imagine Dragons as Hall of Fame artists for their enduring creativity and popularity.”
Imagine Dragons lead singer Dan Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, and bassist Ben McKee received the award before their sold-out performance at the MIDFLORIDA Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, Florida.
Tallying cumulative sales of 74 million album equivalents, 65 million digital songs, and over 160 billion streams, the Las Vegas quartet stand out as the only band in history to earn four RIAA Diamond singles.
