The song's sales helped raise funds for healthcare workers amid the COVID-19 crisis via the non-profit organization Direct Relief. Shinedown most recently released " Atlas Falls," a standalone single from 2020 that was initially earmarked for the group's 2012 album, Amaryllis. "You can be on the tour bus talking about admiring a Rickenbacker guitar from 1978, and days later, you'll walk into your hotel room, and there's a package on the bed - what the fuck?! Zach is so thoughtful." "He's the king of surprising the people that he loves with unexpected gifts," Smith said. It seems Zach has a knack for unloading stellar presents. The singer ended the interview on a more upbeat note, however, when he talked about his Shinedown and Smith & Myers bandmate's gift-giving talent. Hailing from Jacksonville, Florida, the bands founding lineup included vocalist Brent Smith. "He was among the sweetest, kindest people I knew." In 2022, Shinedown released their seventh set, Planet Zero. "I was lucky enough to hang out with Eddie during the early days of Shinedown," Smith added. When Shinedown had to cancel their 2020 "Deep Dive" tour dates, Smith & Myers released two collections - that's right, two - of original songs and rockin' cover versions instead.Įlsewhere in the Metal Hammer chat, the Shinedown singer admitted that he "cried the day that Eddie Van Halen died" last October. Indeed, Smith has gotten creative about staying musically active during downtime related to the pandemic.
But as Smith & Myers, and with a couple of crew guys, are just about doable. He continued, "As Shinedown, that would be impossible, though for the last two months, I've been working with Eric on 'Shinedown 7,' and we're about nine songs into that. "COVID-19 ," Smith replied, "though I'll be honest, Zach and I are among maybe 10 percent of the music population still able to do live events."
