Grammy Award®-nominated multi-Platinum Mississippi rock band 3 Doors Down has been captivating audiences around the world for nearly two decades.

Collective Soul rose to international fame in 1993 with the rock anthem “Shine.” The multi-Platinum quintet has a catalog of #1 hits under their belts that has helped shape and define alternative rock. They’ve sold over 20 million records worldwide and continue to average over one million Spotify streams per month. They were inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame in 2009. The band’s latest live album, LIVE, was released December 8, 2017 on Suretone Records.

Collective Soul will also perform at 3 Doors Down’s 15th Annual “The Better Life Foundation Concert” this fall. The event will take place at Harrah’s Cherokee Casino Resort in Cherokee, NC for the third year in a row on Oct. 27. To date, The Better Life Foundation has donated over $3 Million dollars to veterans, children, women’s and humanitarian relief efforts domestically and around the globe.

Grammy Award®-winning rock band Soul Asylum garnered multi-platinum success with their commercial breakthrough albums 1992’s ‘Grave Dancers Union’ (3x  platinum) and 1995’s ‘Let Your Dim Light Shine’ (1x platinum).  ‘Grave Dancers Union’ featured the international hit “Runaway Train,” which won a 1994 Grammy as Best Rock Song while ‘Let Your Dim Light Shine’ spawned the hit “Misery.”  Dave Pirner of Soul Asylum adds “Looking forward to hitting the road with 3 Doors Down and Collective Soul and seeing everyone!
