SPRINGFIELD, IL – Multi-platinum, record-breaking band, Shinedown, will headline the Illinois Lottery Grandstand on Saturday, August 17 at the Illinois State Fair.

This doesn’t stop with their albums; each of the band’s released singles have reached the Top 5 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Songs Chart.
After performing “GET UP” on Live with Kelly & Ryan & having the song featured as part of TODAY’s look back at 2018 – the band broke yet another record.
