Staind guitarist Mike Mushok chatted with SWOMP about their upcoming gig at Louder Than Life 2024 in Louisville, Kentucky, plus their upcoming U.S. Tour with Breaking Benjamin, which will stop at Pine Knob in Clarkston, Michigan on September 11, 2024.
Staind and Breaking Benjamin, two titans of the early 2000s rock scene, are set to embark on their highly anticipated co-headline tour across the United States this fall.
Produced by Live Nation, the 23-city tour kicks off on September 10 at The Pavilion at Star Lake in Burgettstown, PA making stops in Raleigh, Las Vegas, and more before wrapping up in Austin at Germania Insurance Amphitheater on October 25.
Daughtry will join the tour as direct support with Lakeview as the opening act.
Staind is comprised of lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Aaron Lewis, lead guitarist Mike Mushok, bassist and backing vocalist Johnny April, and drummer Sal Giancarelli.
The band was formed in 1995 in their hometown of Springfield, Massachusetts.
Over the course of their career, Staind has released eight studio albums and 12 top 10 singles, selling over 15 million albums worldwide.
Break the Cycle, released in 2001 and RIAA certified 5x platinum, featured the smash single, “It’s Been Awhile,” one of the most played songs in modern rock radio history, spending 20 weeks at number 1.
In 2023, Staind released their first studio album in 12 years, Confessions of the Fallen, which debuted number 1 on Billboard’s Rock Album chart, and spawned two number 1 singles at rock radio.
