Shinedown – Cut The Cord (Threat To Survival, 2015) We didn’t rehearse the song at all, really.”ĩ. It was midnight when we did it and it was all one take: we filmed the video live. In The Air Tonight was the last song we recorded for those first two EPs. “Zach came to me about doing a covers band because of Simple Man: our audience was saying, ‘Would you ever do this song, or that one?’ We weren’t going to tour or do anything with it, so Zach suggested calling it Smith & Myers, which sounds like a bakery or a law firm ha ha!
