Five Finger Death Punch, undoubtedly one of the

most relevant and successful Rock bands globally, dominated 2013 with the

releases The Wong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell –

Volume 1 and Volume 2.  Both volumes debuted on the

U.S. Billboard album chart at #2 (more notably, within a four-month

period) and in the top ten mainstream charts all across the globe. The two

albums feature two #1 radio hit singles (“Lift Me Up”

featuring Rob Halford of Judas Priest and “Battle Born”) and have

combined sales of over 600,000 units to date. The multi-million selling Rock

titans’ current single, “The House Of The Rising Sun” is their 13th consecutive

top ten hit at Active Rock Radio. Watch the video here: http://vevo.ly/pNJ7Cr. USA TODAY proclaimed Volume

2elevates the group “…to the top of its game. Offering more

than blind rage, though there’s certainly plenty, the songs live in the tension

implied by the album’s title—aware of the implications of lashing out, ready to

accept the consequences” (11/19/13). Following Australia’s

Soundwave Festival and shows across Japan and South East Asia, the band just

concluded a sold out European headlining tour. Five Finger Death Punch is Ivan

Moody (vocals), Zoltan Bathory (guitar), Jeremy Spencer (drums), Jason Hook

(guitar) and Chris Kael (bass).

Volbeat’s Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies has

sold more than 300,000 copies in the U.S. according to Soundscan, alongside

hundreds of thousands of digital singles. The Danish quartet received their

first Grammy Nomination in the “Best Metal Performance” category for “Room 24″

(Volbeat Featuring King Diamond) and won Germany’s Echo Award for “Best

International Alternative Act.”   The band’s repertoire has become a

staple at Active Rock radio, cementing their relevance with five consecutive #1

singles at the format.  Their latest “Dead But Rising” is entrenched in

the Top 5, on its way to the peak of the chart.  Overseas, Outlaw

Gentlemen & Shady Ladies has been certified platinum in their home

country of Denmark, alongside Germany and Austria, with gold sales in Finland.

Mohegan Sun

Arena is now ranked consistently among the top venues in the world

according toBillboard Magazine, Pollstar and Venues Today. It has won

“Casino of The Year” at the Country Music Awards in 2008 & 2010 and in
