Shinedown - Dance, Kid, Dance Act II

On 8 November 2026, Shinedown brings Dance, Kid, Dance Act II to Falkoner Salen in Frederiksberg, Denmark. Formed in early‑2000s Jacksonville, the band centers on vocalist Brent Smith with Barry Kerch on drums, Eric Bass on bass and keys, and Zach Myers on guitar. Their sound blends hard rock, post‑grunge and melodic metal, built on big choruses and guitar‑led ballads.

From Leave a Whisper (2003) and Us and Them (2005) to The Sound of Madness (2008) and Amaryllis (2012), Shinedown has moved toward a broader, more expansive production. Threat to Survival (2015) and Attention Attention (2018) dug into themes of resilience, mental health and inner conflict, ideas that often surface live through shifts between charged riffs and stripped‑back breaks. Planet Zero (2022) kept the melodic backbone while probing social and technological tensions.

On stage, the quartet typically shapes a focused run through two decades of songs, alternating high‑energy cuts with slower breaths. Smith’s voice carries the refrains, while Kerch and Bass drive the pulse and Myers stretches the textures, giving the set a balance between impact and intimacy.
