The video features behind-the-scenes footage from their latest tour
Shinedown releases the official music video for their chart-topping and genre-defying song “Three Six Five.” The music video features footage from their massive Dance, Kid, Dance Tour as well as behind-the-scenes of life on the road for the band.
“This year’s been one for the books and playing ‘Three Six Five’ live with thousands of you has been unforgettable. Relive it with this brand new video, packed with highlights from the Dance, Kid, Dance Tour,” the band shares.
Shot and edited by Carter Louthian, the video is a testament to the power of Shinedown’s fanbase, who can be seen singing, laughing, and crying alongside the band during their packed shows on their most recent tour. The music video is a celebration of the song’s incredible year, which hit Top 20 at Top 40 radio, No. 1 at alternative radio, as well as charting Top 10 at Hot AC and AC and No. 16 at active rock. The video has highlights from their sold-out Madison Square Garden Show (and first time performing at the venue in the band’s history), as well as some personal highlights of the band sharing the amazing tour with their families.
Each night when frontman Brent Smith would introduce “Three Six Five” on tour he would ask the audience, “Do me a favor, if you lost someone in your life that’s no longer on this planet anymore and you think about them every single day and say to yourself ‘I wish had one more day (with them), if I had one more minute,’ and they’re no longer on this planet I want you to raise your hand.” During this emotional moment during the tour, the band would then turn on the house lights in the room – exposing more than half of the audience would have their hands up. A video of this exact moment was recently posted on socials and has nearly 3 million views and thousands of comments filled with stories of loved ones lost. The video has had a similar reaction to the animated music video for the song, where the comment section was also filled with stories of grief and resilience.
This month has been packed for Shinedown as they recently made their Grand Ole Opry debut and received a standing ovation for their performance. Introduced by 17-year Grand Ole Opry member Carrie Underwood, who admitted she has been a big fan since 2004. The band then hit the stage and performed “A Symptom of Being Human,” “Three Six Five,” and surprised the Opry audience with a performance of the new song “Searchlight.” To introduce the song, Smith teased the crowd, “Would you like to hear the debut of a song that no one has heard?” He then continued and described the song’s origin: “Sometimes when you listen close enough to the universe and you’re willing to receive something from it – a song can come out of thin air. That is something that we don’t take for granted. It’s essentially what happened with this next song: we didn’t find it, it found us. This is the debut of a song we like to call: ‘Searchlight.’”
This week. Smith and Zach Myers performed at the launch of Musician’s On Call’s bedside music program in the greater Florida area with HCA Florida Healthcare. Joined by Musician’s on Call’s leadership, Shinedown performed to kick off the event and donated a commemorative Gibson guitar honoring the new partnership. The band also announced that they donated $300,000 from funds raised from the tour.
On the last day of their recent Dance, Kid, Dance arena tour, Smith closed the show and promised fans news of a new album, stating: “Shinedown Number 8 is On The Way!” The recent performance of “Searchlight” left fans and the internet wondering when the song may be released.
Up next, the band is confirmed for the 2025 iHeartRadio Jingle Ball Tour Presented by Capital One, where they will perform on December 2nd at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, TX, December 8th at Allstate Arena in Rosemont, IL, December 9th in Detroit, MI at Little Caesars Arena, and December 16th in Washington, D.C. at Capital One Arena.
