Shinedown @ SOEC in March
Florida rockers Shinedown are kicking off their 2018 Canadian tour in Penticton.
Shinedown will be joined by In This Moment and 10 Years with Canadian rockers One Bad Son at the South Okanagan Events Centre on March 27. Tickets go on sale Friday, Dec. 15, at 10 a.m. Shinedown have built their name on rock songs both brutal in power and epic in scope. Now, with their latest album, Threat to Survival, Shinedown (Brent Smith, Barry Kerch, Eric Bass and Zach Myers) veer away from that densely layered sonic palette and take a more direct approach. It features lead single Cut the Cord — a blistering track that shot to No. 1 on Active Rock radio.
Shinedown’s approach on Threat to Survival had much to do with the emotionally raw material at the heart of the album.
“When we started the writing process, we realized the changes that had taken place over the past two years, our experiences and the relationships that had come and gone, the album really took on a life of its own,” said Smith.
“The songs were so honest, it felt necessary to present them in the most straightforward way possible.”
Tickets for Power 104’s POWERBALL featuring Shinedown with special guests In This Moment, One Bad Son and 10 Years start at $39.50 and go on sale Friday. They can be purchased online at www.valleyfirsttix.com, by phone 1-877-763-2849 or in person at the Valley First Box Office (at the SOEC).
