Shinedown

Shinedown returns in force with a new album and a new tour. EI8TH is released on May 29 and Brent Smith will take his band to the Zénith de Paris, La Villette, on Saturday, October 31, 2026 for the Dance, Kid, Dance Act II tour. Formed in Jacksonville in the early 2000s, the quartet comprises Brent Smith on vocals, Barry Kerch on drums, Eric Bass on bass and Zach Myers on guitar. Their musical playground remains a powerful rock sound, situated between hard rock, post-grunge and sing‑along choruses, with acoustic interludes that find their place in the set.

On stage, Shinedown alternates high‑energy songs and guitar‑driven ballads, exploring themes of resilience and inner tension present from Leave a Whisper to Attention Attention and up to Planet Zero. This Paris date will highlight the new tracks from EI8TH, mixed with staples from The Sound of Madness and the rest of a setlist designed for large venues. Special guest Those Damn Crows will open the evening. A show at the Zénith de Paris that promises to focus on concise, effective songwriting and collective energy, without detours or filler.
