SHINEDOWN's BRENT SMITH And ZACH MYERS Announce December 2026 Tour

September 15, 2026

Brent Smith and Zach Myers — the voice and guitar of multiplatinum band SHINEDOWN — will return to the road this winter as acoustic duo SMITH & MYERS, announcing today an 11-city North American tour beginning December 1 in St. Augustine, Florida and running through December 18 in Nashville, Tennessee. Tickets go on sale September 18 at 10:00 a.m. local time with various artist and venue presales earlier in the week.

Stripped down to nothing more than a microphone and an instrument or two, SMITH & MYERS's live shows have become known for their intimacy, spontaneity and the rare chemistry between two lifelong friends and bandmates. This run marks the duo's first extensive run of shows since the release of their acclaimed double album SMITH & MYERS "Volume 1" and "Volume 2".

SMITH & MYERS first brought the project to life in 2014 with a pair of acoustic cover EPs, "Acoustic Sessions, Part 1" and "Acoustic Sessions, Part 2", before releasing their first full-length originals as a duo, the double album SMITH & MYERS "Volume 1" and "Volume 2", produced by Grammy Award-winning producer and songwriter Dave Bassett.

The tour comes as SHINEDOWN continues a historic run of its own. The band's new album, "Ei8ht", extends a career that has produced over 8.3 billion global streams, 10 million albums sold worldwide, and 15 platinum and gold singles, with platinum or gold certification across their entire catalog.

SHINEDOWN holds the all-time record for the most No. 1s in the history of both Billboard's Mainstream Rock Airplay chart (23 to date) and the Mediabase Active Rock chart (25 to date),and the band has taken home back-to-back wins for "Rock Artist Of The Year" at the iHeartRadio Music Awards.

SHINEDOWN is currently on the road with the "Dance, Kid, Dance Act II" world tour, its global run spanning 11 countries in support of "Ei8ht".
