<P> The band originally consisted of Brad Arnold ( vocals / drums ) , Todd Harrell ( bass ) , and Matt Roberts ( guitar ) . The band began to tour outside Escatawpa , and it was during a trip to Foley , Alabama that they came up with their official name . When the three men were walking through the town , they saw a building where some letters had fallen off its sign , and it read `` Doors Down '' . Since at the time they consisted of three people , they added the `` 3 '' to create `` 3 Doors Down '' . The cover of their 2011 album Time of My Life hints at the original number of band members ( 3 ) and current band members ( 5 ) ; the clock on the album cover reads 3 : 05 . </P>
