Multi-platinum rock band Hinder have announced the Back to Life Tour Part II tour with support from Austin Meade and Kelsey Hickman, kicking off July 11th in Scranton, PA. This announcement comes just after the release of the band’s seventh studio album Back to Life. Earlier this spring, Hinder embarked on the first installment of the Back to Life Tour, hitting Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Dallas, Louisville, & more.
Nearly two decades into their career, Hinder hasn’t just endured as a fixture of modern rock—it’s evolved. The versatile Oklahoma City-based quartet creates emotionally compelling rock, from hard-hitting anthems to subdued, contemplative ballads. Now the band is looking to the future.
“When you’ve been writing songs for over 20 years, sometimes you run out of things to say,” confesses drummer + founding member Cody Hanson. “With life in general, it’s easy to become complacent and uninspired. After writing an entire album and then throwing it away in 2020, we had become discouraged and decided that we weren’t going to release any new music, much less an entire album. However, as soon as we wrote ‘Bring Me Back to Life,’ everything changed. Sometimes, it just takes one special song to breathe life back into a band, and this song became the catalyst for the entire record.”
Hinder’s story began in 2001, when Cody Hanson (drums), Joe “Blower” Garvey (lead guitar), and Mike Rodden (bass) met and activated their musical chemistry. The 2005 hit “Lips of an Angel” from the band’s debut album Extreme Behavior, since certified 3x Platinum, topped the charts and remains a radio mainstay. Powerful lead vocalist Marshal Dutton joined them in 2015. Throughout their discography, Hinder has embodied an ethos of defiance and tenacity through gutsy lyrics, rousing melodies, and soaring choruses. Each album in their musical journey has reflected a progression, from the grittier early days of Take It to the Limit to the more introspective and exploratory energy of their most recent album, 2017’s The Reign.
