About Days of the New

Days of the New was an American rock band from Charlestown, Indiana, formed in 1995. The band later relocated to Louisville, Kentucky. They consisted of vocalist/guitarist Travis Meeks and a variety of supporting musicians. They are best known for the hit singles "Touch, Peel and Stand", "The Down Town", "Shelf in the Room", and "Enemy". "Touch, Peel and Stand" was named, "Greatest of All-Time Mainstream Rock Song" by Billboard. The band was formed by Meeks as an acoustic solo project during his teenage years. Their debut album, Days of the New, informally known as the Yellow or Orange album, was released in 1997 and featured Meeks, along with Jesse Vest, Todd Whitener and Matt Taul. Vest, Whitener and Taul went on to form Tantric. The group briefly included future pop star and Pussycat Dolls frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger on their 1999 album, also named Days of the New, but informally known as the Green album to distinguish it from the first album. Other band members would include drummer Ray Rizzo, bassist Mike Starr (Alice in Chains) and bassist Charlie Colin (Train). The group's third album was also called Days of the New, informally known as the Red album, released in 2001.
