Shinedown bassist Eric Bass won't join the band on their US tour due to a mental health crash but hopes to return soon. Kairos's Josh Sturm will fill in for Bass on the tour. Shinedown will tour Australia with Bush in September, marking their first shows in the region in 15 years. Shinedown will perform in various venues across Australia and New Zealand in support of their new album, EI8HT.
