Shinedown are previewing their upcoming album EI8HT with their latest single, ‘Outlaw.’ Described in a press release as a song featuring a “gritty, roots-driven foundation” and “raw, open-road energy,” the newest single from the band mixes flavors of rock, country and more.

More than a year in the making, EI8HT was produced by bassist Eric Bass, making it a deeply personal and collaborative project for the band. Frontman Brent Smith shares: “This album is over a year in the making. Without question, as a band, we pushed ourselves like never before. Especially when it comes to Eric. Myself, Zach, and Barry are so honoured to create, and work with such an extraordinary producer, engineer, mixer, songwriter, musician, performer, and band mate. We are so excited to finally announce our 8th studio album titled EI8HT alongside our Dance Kid Dance Act ll World Tour.”

The band is also gearing up to launch their massive Dance Kid Dance Act II World Tour, spanning 54 dates across 11 countries. The trek includes major stops throughout North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe.
