Episode #189

If you are a new or old fan of Shinedown, this episode is for you! The 20th anniversary of their original performance of Simple Man by Lynyrd Skynyrd is coming up on January 20, 2024. You may or may not know the origin of the iconic Shinedown version of the song, so this episode is here to answer your questions! Featuring a new interview with Brent Smith, and the original audio from their first 3 appearances on The Mistress Carrie radio show in 2004, 1/20, 3/11, & 6/8, this episode shows how the song went from being a last minute, off the cuff performance, to the amazing live moment you see on stage every night! I could not love the current and former members of Shinedown more! Brent, Zach, Eric, Barry, Jasin, and Brad are such a huge part of so many amazing moments in my life. Their music is the soundtrack to our happiest days and our saddest nights. This is the story of Simple Man.
