This spring, The Pretty Reckless is supporting Shinedown in a US tour. The tour begins on March 22 in Brooklyn (two shows without Shinedown), and ends on May 7 in Knoxville, Tennessee. Throughout the tour, the bands will be visiting several smaller cities across the country, including Greensboro, NC, Spokane, WA, Fargo, ND, Wichita, KS and more. Tickets go on sale Dec. 17 via Ticketmaster. 

The venture celebrates The Pretty Reckless’ recent album Death By Rock and Roll, which “proves that music has the ability to soundtrack events in our lives.” These events include the deaths of frontman Chris Cornell and producer Kato Khandwala. 

“We wanted to make an anthem for rock ‘n’ roll, and even though it’s called ‘Death by Rock and Roll,’ it’s saying the opposite,” Momsen said in Consequence. “It’s saying to live life your own way, go out your own way and don’t let anyone tell you different. That’s how he lived his life, and it’s how we live our lives.” 

Shinedown’s latest piece is 2018’s Attention Attention, which was celebrated for “completely shattering the boundaries” of rock. The band was scheduled to perform at the 2020 Sandjam festival alongside Weezer and Manchester Orchestra, but the event was canceled due to COVID concerns. This May, though, they will join rock legends such as Megadeth, Rise Against, Papa Roach and more in the Welcome to Rockville Festival in Daytona Beach.
