Flip/Atlantic recording group Staind will perform live on Race Day for the 90th Indianapolis 500 on Sunday, May 28.
The multi-platinum rock superstars will play on a stage overlooking the famed “Yard of Bricks” at the start-finish line during the pre-race ceremonies for “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”
Staind’s most recent platinum album, “CHAPTER V,” has spawned three massive rock radio hits. “Right Here” started as a No. 1 multi-format smash, is in the top 10 on the Hot AC and national mainstream pop charts nearly a year after its release. It is the fourth No. 1 rock radio hit for the Massachusetts-based band during its career, following “For You,” “It’s Been Awhile” and “So Far Away.”
The second hit from “CHAPTER V,” “Falling,” reached the top 10 on the rock charts, while the third and most recent single, “Everything Changes,” is currently a top-20 track on rock radio while scoring major airplay on Active Rock and Alternative stations around the United States.
“CHAPTER V” debuted in August 2005 at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, the third consecutive chart-topping album for the band. Other chart toppers by Staind are “14 Shades of Grey” and “Break the Cycle.”
Staind is comprised of Aaron Lewis (vocals), Mike Mushok (guitar), Johnny April (bass) and Jon Wysocki (drums).
