OneRepublic's third album, Native (2013), became the band's first top ten album on the Billboard 200, and highest-charting album to date, charting at number four.

The band's second album, Waking Up (2009), produced the singles 'All the Right Moves', 'Secrets', 'Marchin On', and 'Good Life', with the last reaching the top ten of the US Billboard Hot 100. The album was later certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The second single, 'Stop and Stare', mirrored its predecessor's success. Its lead single, 'Apologize', was remixed by Timbaland, becoming a huge international success, reaching number one in sixteen countries and subsequently earning them a Grammy Award nomination.

In 2007, OneRepublic released their debut album, Dreaming Out Loud. The lead single of that album, 'Apologize', was released on April 30, 2006, on Myspace and received some recognition there, becoming number one on the Myspace charts. The album was scheduled for release on June 6, 2006, but the group was dropped by Columbia two months before the album was released. They made their first album with producer Greg Wells during the summer and fall of 2005 at his studio, Rocket Carousel, in Culver City, California. In late 2002, after OneRepublic played shows throughout the Los Angeles area, several record labels approached the band with interest, but the band signed with Velvet Hammer, an imprint of Columbia Records. The band achieved its first commercial success on Myspace as an unsigned act. It consists of lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Tedder, guitarists Zach Filkins and Drew Brown, bassist and cellist Brent Kutzle, drummer Eddie Fisher and keyboardist Brian Willett. OneRepublic is an American pop rock band formed in Colorado Springs, Colorado, in 2002.
