SHINEDOWN has unveiled a hauntingly beautiful piano rendition of its rapidly ascending hit “Three Six Five,” released via Atlantic Records. Stripped-down yet emotionally resonant, the reimagined version highlights the band’s musical depth and showcases a different side of the already-popular track.
“Three Six Five” continues to dominate across multiple radio formats, currently charting at No. 5 on Alternative, No. 13 on Hot AC, and within the Top 30 on both Active Rock and Mainstream AC. The song is also poised to enter the Top 40 soon. Its meteoric rise mirrors that of SHINEDOWN’s previous success with “A Symptom Of Being Human.”
This momentum carries into the band’s live performances as SHINEDOWN kicked off their “Dance, Kid, Dance” tour at Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa. Frontman Brent Smith, along with bandmates Eric Bass, Barry Kerch, and Zach Myers, delivered an electrifying show featuring powerful visuals, pyrotechnics, and a high-energy setlist. This 36-date tour marks one of the band’s most ambitious undertakings yet, featuring headline performances at iconic venues like Madison Square Garden (July 20), TD Garden in Boston (July 19), the Kia Forum in Los Angeles (August 3), and New Orleans’s Smoothie King Center (May 6). Support acts include BEARTOOTH, BUSH (on select dates), and Morgan Wade, who will perform at every stop.
Fans were treated to a thrilling experience from the first note, with SHINEDOWN performing standout hits such as “A Symptom Of Being Human,” debuting live versions of new singles “Dance, Kid, Dance” and “Three Six Five,” and revisiting long-unplayed tracks like “Asking for It,” “Burning Bright,” and “Breaking Inside.” They also delivered the first-ever live performance of “Thick As Thieves.” The crowd responded with fervent energy, singing along especially during fan favorites like “Second Chance” and their stirring cover of LYNYRD SKYNYRD’s “Simple Man.”
Further elevating the excitement around their new material, SHINEDOWN recently released the official music video for their chart-topping track “Dance, Kid, Dance.” Shot in Brooklyn, New York, the video plunges viewers into an underground rock and dance scene. The storyline features concertgoers breaking into a vending machine for pills that “make you dance,” building to an explosive blend of rock intensity and vibrant choreography. The band brings their signature live energy to the screen, surrounded by a cast of dynamic dancers.
On the making of the video, Brent Smith commented: “We really wanted to focus on the dancers. Every one of them brought so much energy to the set, and it was amazing to watch and be a part of. The song doesn’t let up, so it was super important that our performance as a band matched the intensity of the choreography. New York City was the perfect backdrop for its authenticity and connection to dance culture. Every time you watch the video, there’s something new to see. We had an absolute blast making it and hope the fans love it as much as we do.”
The video was directed by Lewis Cater, with choreography by Julissa Bond and editing by Samuel Halleen.
In addition to their tour and releases, SHINEDOWN’s accomplishments in 2025 have been nothing short of historic. They won two awards at this year’s iHeartRadio Music Awards: “Rock Artist of the Year” and “Rock Song of the Year” for “A Symptom Of Being Human.” That single alone has achieved nearly 125 million global streams and appeared across five major radio formats — including No. 1 at Active Rock, Top 10 at Alternative and AC, Top 15 at Hot AC, and Top 20 at Top 40.
With these achievements, SHINEDOWN became the first artist to place a single in the Top 10 simultaneously on Active, Alternative, and Hot AC radio via Mediabase. The song’s message — emphasizing the power of human connection — continues to resonate worldwide.
Their latest hit “Dance, Kid, Dance” has also made waves, reaching No. 1 on the Mediabase Active Rock chart and Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart. This marks SHINEDOWN’s 22nd No. 1 on Mediabase and their 20th No. 1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock chart — setting a new record. Additionally, the band tied with the FOO FIGHTERS for the most Top 10 songs on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart, each with 32 entries.
SHINEDOWN now holds records on Mediabase for the most No. 1s, Top 5s, and Top 10s on the Active Rock chart, with 24 No. 1s overall — further cementing their legacy in modern rock history.
Brent Smith and Eric Bass co-wrote “Three Six Five,” while “Dance, Kid, Dance” was a collaborative effort between Smith, Bass, and songwriter Dave Bassett. Both tracks were produced by Eric Bass at Big Animal Studio, his personal studio based in Charleston, South Carolina.
