Multi-platinum, chart-topping band Shinedown is bringing their explosive and acclaimed live show to select cities in 2024 including Atlantic City on Saturday, August 10 at Ovation Hall at Ocean Casino Resort. PRESS HERE for more info.
Shinedown recently took the airwaves by storm with their crossover hit “A Symptom Of Being Human” reaching #18 on the Top 40 pop chart, with notable support from New York’s Z100 (PRESS HERE to watch/listen a recent interview and performance with Elvis Duran and The Morning Show) and SiriusXM Hits 1, and hitting Top 10 at Alternative radio and Top 15 at Hot AC. “A Symptom Of Being Human” is also the fourth #1 Active Rock single from Shinedown’s acclaimed seventh studio album Planet Zero (Atlantic Records), extending the band’s record for most No. 1 songs on the Mediabase Active Rock Chart (21) and their record for the most No. 1’s in the history of Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay chart (19).
Mediabase also recently presented Shinedown with an award for the most No. 1’s, Top 5’s, and Top 10’s in MediaBase Active Rock Chart history, commemorating their status as the greatest rock band in history and cementing their status as one of the most vital and forward-thinking powerhouses in music.
It’s rare for a rock band to break into pop music, but Shinedown, who were nominated for Rock Artist of the Year at this year’s iHeartRadio Music Awards, has always believed that music is universal and doesn’t have to be put in a genre box, as evidenced by the response to “A Symptom Of Being Human” resonating with all listeners worldwide across multiple formats with its uplifting and important message about how we are all a work in progress. The band’s exploration of the resilience of the human spirit, experiences with mental health, and the importance of empathy shine through in the track reminding us that we are more similar than we are different. Collectively, “A Symptom Of Being Human” has amassed more than 50 million streams across all versions including a new live version, pop remix, acoustic version, and piano version. The radio success for “A Symptom Of Being Human” marks a return for Shinedown to non-active rock stations and the pop charts for the first time in 15 years following their previous crossover hits “If You Only Knew” and “Second Chance.”
In other fun news, Shinedown turned up the heat this spring when they announced a new line of hot sauces in collaboration with specialty sauce artisan Torchbearer Sauces, with support by Warner Music Experience. The first flavor Symptom Chipotle Garlic Sauce, available now, is named after “A Symptom Of Being Human” and marks the first in a series of Shinedown sauces to come this year, with the next flavor coming this summer. Symptom Chipotle Garlic Sauce boasts a delectable fusion of chipotle peppers with a smokey flavor and gourmet garlic aioli – creating a sauce with the perfect level of heat to elevate any meal. UPROXX hailed, “Shinedown and Torchbearer knocked it out of the park.”
Shinedown front man Brent Smith sat down with Rolling Stone to discuss the success of “A Symptom Of Being Human” as well as the band’s decades-long career speaking out and singing about mental health and the human connection – PRESS HERE to read.
