The music video for the newest Three Days Grace single “Lifetime” shines a spotlight on the city of Mayfield, Kentucky which late last year took the brunt of one of the deadliest tornados in recent history. The video features shots of singer Matt Walst as well as members of the Mayfield community walking among the ruins of last December’s EF4 tornado.
On Dec. 10, 2021, heavy storms started to wreak havoc on the states of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi, but the town that took the most severe damage was Mayfield, Kentucky when the EF4 tornado struck. An EF4 tornado is the second-highest rating in terms of damage that a tornado can get, only being topped by an EF5. EF4 tornados can produce wind gusts of over 200mph, and completely tear structures off their foundations. As seen in the video, a radio report synopsis details that 730 structures within the town were destroyed, with 847 families displaced as a result.
Three Days Grace are doing their part, getting the word out on how fans can donate to a Mayfield tornado relief GoFundMe campaign as well as funding that can assist Mayfield Independent School District Students. The band is also donating $1 from every ticket sold on their U.S. tour to these organizations as well.

Three Days Grace has just announced an extension of their 2022 U.S. tour. The second leg will feature supporting acts Wage War, and Zero 9:36. As mentioned above, $1 from every ticket purchased to any of the shows on tour will be donated directly to Mayfield tornado relief efforts. Three Days Grace will be stopping through Green Bay at Capital Credit Union Park on July 23rd, 2022.
