SHINEDOWN WITH HALESTORM TO PLAY HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO SIOUX CITY
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (March 28, 2016) – Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Sioux City has announced two new artists to headline this summer’s Battery Park Concert Series. Fans will have the opportunity to see rock ‘n’ roll band Shinedown perform hits like “If You Only Knew” and “State of My Head.” Halestorm, fronted by powerhouse female rocker Lzzy Hale, will join Shinedown in the outdoor venue on Sunday, July 17, 2016.
Fan enthusiasm for Shinedown has led the band to sell more than 6 million records and earn golden records and double-platinum singles. Shinedown is no stranger to rocking with Halestorm. In addition to their upcoming show together at Battery Park, both acts are performing this summer on the Carnival of Madness tour. Their vocalists have traded talent on the other’s tracks in the past. Halestorm’s Lzzy Hale provided the guest vocals on the bonus version of “Breaking Inside” from the limited edition release of Shinedown’s 2010 deluxe CD/DVD of The Sound of Madness.
The performance date is as follows:
- SHINEDOWN with HALESTORM – Sunday, July 17

SHINEDOWN
Sunday, July 17, 2016 / 8:00 p.m. / Battery Park
Shinedown have built their name on rock songs both brutal in power and epic in scope. Now, with their latest album, Shinedown (Brent Smith, Barry Kerch, Eric Bass, and Zach Myers) veer away from that densely layered sonic palette and take a more direct approach. Featuring lead single “Cut the Cord” — a blistering track that shot to No. 1 on Active Rock radio — Threat to Survival finds the multi-platinum-selling band achieving their most powerful sound ever and offering up their most important album to date.
As Smith explains, Shinedown’s approach on Threat to Survival had much to do with the emotionally raw material at the heart of the album. “When we started the writing process we realized the changes that had taken place over the past two years, our experiences, the relationships that had come and gone, the album really took on a life of its own,” says Smith. “It’s like the songs were saying to us, ‘The songs were so honest, it felt necessary to present them in the most straightforward way possible.”
HALESTORM
Sunday, July 17, 2016 / 8:00 p.m. / Battery Park
With “INTO THE WILD LIFE,” Halestorm reach deep within and conjure their most engaging and eclectic songs to date. The band has pushed their musical boundaries further than we’ve seen thus far, crafting songs that rise from a whisper to a scream and back again, proving that there’s no limit to creativity. Nothing will stop them from realizing their artistic vision.
On “Sick Individual,” which opens with a drum solo and blends into a dramatic rock anthem, front rocker Hale sings attitude-laden lyrics that encapsulate the vibe and versatility of the record. Shards of metal, passages of pop and reams of rock – both classic and contemporary — abound throughout “INTO THE WILD LIFE,” the exuberance of which is only matched by the band’s passion and confidence.
