Green Day - Biography:

Punk rock trio Green Day formed in 1987. The band’s current line up includes Billie Joe Armstrong (vocals, guitar), Mike Dirnt (bass guitar, vocals) and Tré Cool (drums, percussion). Green Day was originally part of the punk rock scene in Berkeley, California. Early releases earned them a grassroots fanbase that rapidly expanded when their major label debut Dookie (1994) became a breakout success, selling over 15 million copies worldwide.

Three follow-up albums ensued, Insomniac, Nimrod and Warning, and, although not reaching the dizzying heights of Dookie, were still successful, reaching double platinum, double platinum, and gold status respectively. Green Day’s 2004 rock opera American Idiot reignited the band’s popularity with the younger generation and has sold 12 Million copies to date, the band’s eighth studio album, 21st Century Breakdown, was released in May 2009 to critical acclaim and commercial success.
