Creed was an American post-grunge band, from Tallahassee, Florida, that became commercially successful during the late ’90s. Creed formed in 1994 with their debut album, My Own Prison. Founding members vocalist Scott Stapp and guitarist Mark Tremonti had been classmates in high school and friends at Florida State University. Stapp and Tremonti realized that they had a mutual love of writing music and performing. They skyrocketed to fame in the late ’90s and early 2000s, reshaping the post-grunge music scene. Their ascent was fueled by multi-platinum albums such as “My Own Prison” (1997) and the diamond-certified “Human Clay” (1999).
