In addition, the has released their new apparel line, SD Limited. Conceived by Shinedown guitarist Zach Myers, SD Limited has a focus on premium quality lifestyle products, re-imagining, and elevating classic band and concert merch into everyday streetwear pieces. Capsule collections will be made available in limited quantities. The first collection dropped during Black Friday and is inspired by Shinedown’s 2008 breakthrough album The Sound of Madness.

“We are thrilled that SD Limited is finally coming into fruition and set to be released imminently,” says the band’s Zach Myers. “This is an idea that we have been looking to launch for a while, but the rigors of touring always kept it on the back burner. Earlier this year, Adam, from EightySeven Creative Agency had gotten in touch about working together on a project, and I knew he was perfect for this venture with his inspired and futuristic take on concert merchandising. He alongside myself and our longtime merchandiser, Kent Sinkler, set out to deconstruct the classic rock shirt, throw it in a blender with street fashion, and strip it all down to a central message of community. We wanted to appeal to everyone, whether they had heard of our band or not, but truly wanted to serve our most loyal fans. It was important that the products were made with high quality materials, with unique graphics and color ways, but most important that the themes that have carried our band across the world for the last 20 years were woven into each piece.”

Kicking off on December 3rd, Smith & Myers – the duo comprised of Shinedown front man Brent Smith and guitarist Zach Myers – will embark on a tour that will see them dive into their new double album, Smith & Myers Volume 1 & Volume 2, out now via Atlantic Records. All COVID-19 safety protocols will be followed in adherence with state guidelines. Tickets are on sale now via their website.
