In a recent interview with Justin Schlegel and Josh Spiegel of the Baltimore radio station 98 Rock, THREE DAYS GRACE singer Adam Gontier spoke about the band's ongoing tour in support of its latest album, "Alienation", which arrived in August via RCA Records.
For the first time in over a decade, original THREE DAYS GRACE frontman Adam is back, joining Matt Walst on vocals along with Neil Sanderson (drums),Brad Walst (bass) and Barry Stock (guitars).
Regarding how his return came to be, Adam said: "Yeah, first, there was never a moment where I wanted to come in and take back [the position as the sole lead singer].
No way." He explained that the foundation between him and Matt is really strong due to their shared past as bandmates growing up together.
Gontier added: "We got sort of — not lucky, but our voices do blend really well together.
And we've noticed it obviously way more now with making the record and recording and all this stuff that, yeah, our voices really blend well." The band's new lineup features Adam on vocals for older songs and Matt for newer ones, with parts where they can sing together.
They have been touring extensively in support of their latest album, including sold-out shows in Canada (co-headline with VOLBEAT) and the U.S.
(co-headline with BREAKING BENJAMIN) and a sold-out European tour (with BADFLOWER).
The band's current tour kicked off in Fort Wayne, Indiana in February before hitting Canada and Europe, wrapping up the final show in Los Angeles, California.
The tour is receiving support from I PREVAIL and THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT in the U.S., with FINGER ELEVEN and ROYAL TUSK joining them for select Canadian dates.
THREE DAYS GRACE played its first full show with Gontier in 12 years on February 25, 2025 as the support act for DISTURBED on the U.S.
leg of "The Sickness 25th Anniversary Tour" at Ford Idaho Center Arena in Nampa, Idaho.
In a separate interview, Neil stated about Adam's return to THREE DAYS GRACE: "We had been talking and we've kept in touch.
And the band was just talking about, like, how great would this be for us and for the fans and for the nostalgia of THREE DAYS GRACE." The band members have acknowledged that Gontier's return has brought new life to the band, making it exciting again much like their early days.
