The Connector

Tired of ho-hum mainstream music? Bored to tears with whatever is in heavy rotation whenever you dare to turn? Do you want to be blown away and have your eardrums follow suit? Try Shinedown on for size, recently nominated for Favorite Alternative Rock Artist at the 2009 American Music Awards. Lead singer Brent Smith took hold of the show with his powerhouse voice with fan favorites such as, “Second Chance,” “Fly From the Inside” and “45” while the group played at the Bell Auditorium in Augusta, Ga. on Oct. 19. Following alongside him were Berry Kerch on drums, Zach Myers on lead and rhythm guitar and Eric Bass on bass. Together they are match made in musical heaven. It took little effort for the band to get the crowd jumping, screaming and singing along. The show didn’t disappoint, so don’t miss them live the next time they come to town.
