If you have been waiting for the tour to open your eyes, this is it. Three absolute powerhouses are joining forces and will begin touring performances this spring.

In the title song of her latest album "American Dream", Diamante claims to have "California Heart and East Coast Mind". Diamante, a native of Boston, has no apologies for her identity and has every stage she performs on large and small stages. In fact, she toured with Bad Wolves in 2018 and stopped at Aura (and even WCYY studio) before the release of her first LP Coming In Hot. The following year, she joined Dorothy, Chevelle and Breaking Benjamin on the stage now known as the Bangor Maine Savings Amphitheater.

Just before the pandemic, Diamante worked with Breaking Benjamin's Ben Burnley to turn over an amazing cover for Goo Goo Dolls' "Iris".

Pretty and reckless hasn't been on the road for years. As a band endured many tragic losses. During Chris Cornell's untimely death, The Pretty Reckless was touring with Sound Garden.

Soon thereafter, they lost their producer and friend Kato Condewara in a motorcycle accident.

After dealing with all the sad lead singer Taylor Momsen and the band, they are ready to release new music. This new music serves as a means of catharsis.

Because of the band's ties to New England, they eventually produced their latest album "Death of Rock" at Halo Studios in Wyndham, Maine. One piece, "And So It Wet", features the vocal music of Maine students attending the Maine School of Modern Music.

Pretty Reckless hasn't performed a song on this record yet, and they are ready to go back there.

Shinedown's last album "Attention Attention" was released in 2018, and their last stop in Maine was the Maine Savings Hall on Rock Row in Westbrook in 2019.

Since then, during the pandemic, members Brent Smith and Zach Myers have continued to tour Smith & Myers in a car theater near New Hampshire. Side project, and the band released their film album of the same name.

When they stay in Maine, they will release new music. According to Loudwire, Brent Smith himself confirmed that the new album will be released in early 2022. This is the perfect start to the tour.

The tour will take place at the Cross Insurance Arena in Portland, Maine on Monday, April 18. Tickets will go on sale this Friday, December 17th at 10 am.
