Daughtry & 3 Doors Down In 2013
Members of both bands know a good thing when they see it. Playing to sold-out houses since launching the tour in November at 3 Doors Down’s ninth annual Better Life Foundation event, both bands will take a short holiday break before returning to the concert stage next month.
Daughtry is supporting its new album, Break The Spell, which includes the band’s new single, “Start Of Something Good.”
The latest 3 Doors Down release is the best-off collection released last month called The Greatest Hits. Including favorites such as “Kryptonite,” “When I’m Gone” and “Here Without You,” the anthology also has two new tracks – “One Light” and “Goodbyes.”
Beginning in Dallas, the last stop on the new co-headline leg is Clearwater, Fla. Along the way the bands will rock fine municipalities such as Battle Creek, Mich., Tupelo, Miss., Erie, Pa., and Worcester, Mass.

We’re probably not telling you anything that you don’t already know, but global concert rules & regs require quotes from both parties when announcing a tour leg of this magnitude. First up is Daughtry’s namesake.
“We’re very happy to continue the tour with 3 Doors Down, and look forward to getting this show to the fans that we missed on the first leg of this tour,” Chris Daughtry said.”
“This tour with Daughtry has been amazing, and we are excited to keep it rolling into 2013,” 3 Doors Down singer Brad Arnold said. “See you on the road my friends!”
As if you need any further encouragement to see this co-bill in action, AXS TV will televise the Dec. 11 stop in Broomfield, Colo., at 1st Bank Center.
