Shinedown don’t slow down. The band has released “Outlaw,” the latest track from their eighth studio album ‘Ei8ht’, arriving May 29 via Atlantic Records. Built on a gritty, roots-driven foundation with a raw open-road energy, the track expands the sonic world of ‘Ei8ht’ while keeping the band’s signature intensity fully intact. It follows a remarkable string of chart-toppers including “Dance, Kid, Dance,” “Killing Fields,” “Three Six Five,” “Searchlight,” and “Safe and Sound.”
The release comes right off the back of another career milestone. Shinedown took home Rock Artist of the Year at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on March 26, their second consecutive win in the category. Their latest number one, “Searchlight,” topped both the Mediabase Active Rock and Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay charts, marking their 24th and 22nd number one hits on those platforms respectively. They continue to extend their own records on both.
With ‘Ei8ht’ on the horizon and “Outlaw” now in the mix, Shinedown head out on the Dance Kid Dance Act II World Tour, a 60-date global run spanning North America, the UK, Europe, and Australia across 12 countries, including some of the largest venues of their career.
