Believe Will Create DivisionShinedown have become the fourth artist to pull out of Kid Rocks MAGA-leaning Rock the Country music festival, the band announced on social media Friday.
The group is the fourth artist to pull out of the festival, following Ludacris and country artists Morgan Wade and Carter Faith.
Shinedown is everyones band, the group wrote. We feel that we have been given a platform to bring all people together through the power of music and song, the message began. We have one BOSS, and it is everyone in the audience. Our bands purpose is to unite, not divide. With that in mind, we have made the decision that we will not be playing the Rock the Country Festival.
We know this decision will create differences of opinion. But we do not want to participate in something we believe will create further division, the band continued. And to our fans, thank you for supporting and believing in us. We love and appreciate you always.

(65,963 posts)4. I love Shinedown. Looking at the roster for this festival
I'm not quite sure how they ever fit it with the other performers. I'm not their biggest fan, so maybe they have a country-rock alt-country album I'm not aware of or something.
