The other members of the band are Ben McKee (bass) and Daniel Platzman (drummer). Both are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (inadvertently referred to as the “Mormon” Church by the media and others). Guitarist Wayne “Wing” Sermon was born in American Fork, Utah, and lead singer Dan Reynolds attended Brigham Young University. Imagine Dragons is an alternative rock band that may at times claim Las Vegas, Nevada, to be their home however, their real beginnings are in Utah. That might be the case in a fairy tale adventure, but what about in reality?
When a person hears the words “Imagine Dragons,” what might be the first thing that comes to mind? Perhaps they think of a mythological tale of a knight in shining armor defending a beautiful maiden in distress, or an entire village, from fire-breathing, man-eating dragons.
