Shinedown return with their long-awaited studio album EI8HT, led by the powerful new single 'Safe and Sound.' The release follows a historic year that saw four major singles featured on the album — three #1 hits Three, Six Five, Dance, Kid Dance, and Killing Fields, along with Searchlight, which debuted at the iconic Grand Ole Opry and continues to climb at radio. The momentum continued with a massive sold-out arena tour, including Madison Square Garden. Self-produced by bassist Eric Bass and co-written with front man Brent Smith, the 18-track album balances arena-sized rock with deeply introspective, relatable lyrics, delivering something for everyone and reaffirming Shinedown’s identity as everyone’s band.
