The band currently consists of lead vocalist and guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist and backing vocalist Mike Dirnt, and drummer Tre Cool. Green Day has become one of the most successful and influential punk bands in the world. The band’s original members, Armstrong and Dirnt, first met at age 10 and bonded over their shared love for music. After experimenting with different band names, they settled on Green Day in reference to their fondness for marijuana. Tre Cool joined the band as their drummer in 1990, solidifying the iconic trio. In 1994, Green Day released their breakthrough album, Dookie, which catapulted them into mainstream success.

American Idiot marked a significant turning point for the band, as it delved into political themes and achieved critical acclaim for its ambitious rock opera concept. The album’s title track became an anthem for a generation and earned them numerous awards, including Grammy Awards for Best Rock Album and Record of the Year. Throughout their career, Green Day has maintained their signature punk sound while experimenting with different genres, such as pop-punk, alternative rock, and garage rock.
