After the successful run of their debut Night Visions—filled with anthems like “On Top of the World”, “Demons” and the Grammy Award-winning single “Radioactive” -- Imagine Dragons spent nearly two years bringing their passionately inventive brand of alt-rock to arenas around the world. With more than 130 headline dates and 50 festivals across the globe, the Las Vegas-based quartet threw themselves into creating material for their second album Smoke + Mirrors, which marks the first release recorded in their new self-built home studio. “So many things were changing for us so quickly, the only way to feel some kind of stability was to keep writing,” says frontman Dan Reynolds, who founded Imagine Dragons with guitarist Wayne Sermon, bassist Ben McKee, and drummer Daniel Platzman.

After Alex Da Kid signed them to his KIDinaKORNER/Interscope label, the band made its major-label debut with the release of Continued Silence, a 2012 EP featuring the 2x platinum breakthrough single "It's Time." Night Visions arrived later that year and Imagine Dragons found themselves on a skyward trajectory that saw the album debut at No. 2 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, sell nearly four million copies worldwide, and became the No. 1 album on Spotify Worldwide for 2013.

Night Visions' second single, the 9x-platinum "Radioactive," hit No. 1 on the Billboard Rock chart and earned the band a 2014 Grammy for "Best Rock Performance" and also became the best-selling rock song in US digital history. The third single, "Demons," hit No. 1 at Alternative and Top 40 radio, and has sold 3.9 million copies in the US The band has sold more than 24 million tracks worldwide and has surpassed one billion streams on Spotify.

Blog: Pete Wentz, "2015 Is Our Chance To Be Bold"

In 2015, we will see music is more pervasive than ever -- it is everywhere.  I see it when I go to kids' birthday parties: "Let It Go" is so undeniable that it became part of the fabric of the little-girl princess experience. Music is so pervasive that people who I am sure wouldn't have heard my band otherwise say they heard [a Fall Out Boy] song in a stadium when their team was playing. 2015 is our chance to be bold. 

I also believe festival culture in the U.S. will become more like that of Europe: We will see that genre matters less than quality of the artist. We will see more festivals like Made in America, where a sponsor and a great line-up can create a truly great experience. In 2015, the idea of "curation" in music will create even stronger cultures/brands -- I think that's why we see a label like Mad Decent doing what they do. When fans can trust the curator -- when they trust the taste -- I think they are more open to checking out new artists and new experiences. I believe that authentic taste-making will become even more important in 2015.

I think we will also see the biggest divide in music between the old model and the new model. I see it in the kids I talk to at shows -- they love songs: When I ask them what they like, they don't name albums, they don't name artists. It seems like a new generation is truly less tethered to one genre more than ever and that's exciting to me."
