Shinedown bassist Eric Bass has announced he won't be joining the band at the start of the Dance, Kid, Dance Act 2 World Tour as he continues treatment following what he describes as a serious mental health crash.

In a heartfelt message to fans, Bass said he's already making progress through TMS therapy and counseling, but wants to make sure he's fully healthy before returning to the stage.

He also shared an important reminder for anyone who may be struggling, encouraging people to reach out for help and saying that asking for support was the first step in his own recovery.

We wish Eric all the best and look forward to seeing him back on stage when he's ready. 

Shinedown gave fans a chance to make their pitch for a "Safe and Sound" video, and the winners of the contest decided to take the title of the band's single "Dance Kid, Dance" seriously.

The lucky rockstars were three L.A. based choreographers - David Matthew Rodriguez, Sean Lay and Adrian Pekurovsky - who wanted to make something that wouldn't normally happen in a rock video. 

The three different dance crews brought their own styles and movements to the song, showing that rock music can inspire in ways you might not expect. The goal? To break the rules, push boundaries, and turn the emotion of the song into a powerful visual experience.

Choreographer David Matthew Rodriguez says the mission was to create something "epically original" — translating the passion and confidence of "Safe and Sound" into movement.

"Safe and Sound," is from their latest album EI8HT - This video is unlike anything they've done before! It brings the song's energy, emotion, and attitude to life. It's bold, unexpected, and 100% Shinedown. Check it out now!

Shinedown's Brent Smith and Zach Myers recently appeared on comedian Matt Mathews' YouTube series Farm Chores where they headed to his farm in Alabama to help out with some chores and talk about Shinedown's new album EI8HT.

They spend the day shoveling manure, chasing chickens, feeding Wookie the donkey, brushing pigs...basically getting a firsthand look at life outside of sold-out arenas and tour buses. It's the best think you'll see all day.
