Shinedown announce new album and Dublin show

American rock band Shinedown have announced their album EI8HT, due out May 29, alongside a show at the 3Olympia in Dublin, set to take place on November 22.

The band also released the late single 'Safe and Sound', preceded by four other songs from the record, including 'Dance, Kid, Dance', 'Killing Fields', and 'Three Six Five', released in 2025.

They will kick off their world tour on May 13, stopping in 11 countries across 54 dates in North America, the UK, and the EU. The Dublin gig will feature Welsh band Those Damn Crows as special guests.

"This album is over a year in the making. Without question as a band we pushed ourselves like never before," said Shinedown's frontman Brent Smith.

Shinedown were formed by Smith in Jacksonville, Florida in 2001. The group released a total of seven studio albums, the most recent of which was Planet Zero in 2022.

The world tour adds to the band's recently announced festival - Shinedown's Lunatic Ball Beach Weekend, set to take place in October in Miramar Beach, Florida. The three-day event will feature performances from Shinedown, Bush, Hanson, Flyleaf, and more.
