Now, granted, you have to understand that the music is what does the talking. Now, I look at it 20 years later, and our relationship with rock radio is still very, very strong. In turn, they helped us out so much in the first beginning stages of this band.
We tried our best to always be honest, and to give radio everything that they needed, and everything that they wanted. We said yes to everything we could possibly say for rock radio - especially mainstream radio, which some people call active rock, and alternative radio as well. A lot of that has to do with Bill McGathy, our manager of the last 20 years, and also the fact that we have been on Atlantic Records for the last 20 years, and continue the relationship, because Atlantic Records to Shinedown is family.Īs soon as we hit the road with that first album, we just never looked back. The thing about terrestrial radio, for this band specifically, is that we knew early on - right around 2002, 2003 - how important terrestrial radio was going to be for us. I honestly take it extremely seriously, as Zach and Eric and Barry do, as well. 1 singles! Are you even able to process how Shinedown has commanded this chart more than any artist or band in the last 40 years? Now, as Shinedown prepares its seventh studio album and plots a new tour for fall 2021, we caught up with Smith, as he unpacks the importance of rock radio to his band’s success and what power the format still has, while also breaking down some of Shinedown’s most iconic tunes. This week, the band tops Billboard ’s Greatest of All Time Mainstream Rock Artists listing, finishing ahead of peers from the last 20 years like Three Days Grace and Disturbed, as well as classic rock staples like Van Halen and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2008 - remain modern rock staples. Enduring tracks like the poignant “45,” incendiary “Save Me” and transcendent “Second Chance” - which climbed all the way to No. Since 2003, the Jacksonville-based foursome - Smith, drummer Barry Kerch, guitarist Zach Myers and bassist Eric Bass (the latter two having joined the band in 2008) - has enraptured rock listeners with an unparalleled run of rock radio hits: all 27 of the group’s singles have reached the Top 5 on Billboard ’s Mainstream Rock chart, with a record-breaking 16 No. What are your thoughts on Shinedown’s new music?
