Theory of a Deadman’s Unplugged Tour Hits Capitol Theatre
WHEELING — Theory of a Deadman brings their Unplugged Tour to Wheeling’s Capitol Theatre on Sunday, Nov. 17. The hard rockers will be joined by Saint Asonia and Cory Marks.
Tickets are available at capitoltheatrewheeling.com, the WesBanco Arena Box Office or by calling 304-233-7000.
With sky-high hooks, riffs as thick as a 2×4, rumbling grooves, and a razor-sharp sense of humor, Theory of a Deadman have quietly persisted as an unapologetic, unbreakable and undeniable hard rock force with major multiplatinum hits and countless sold-out shows in each of the past two decades.
Jamming together in basements throughout high school, the band burst out of their small hometown of North Delta, British Columbia with the self-titled, “Theory of a Deadman,” during 2002.
In addition to the double-platinum breakthrough album “Scars & Souvenirs” (2008) and gold-certified “The Truth Is…” (2011), they have notched a procession of hits, including the gold-certified “All Or Nothing,” “Bitch Came Back” and “Lowlife,” platinum-certified “Angel,” “Hate My Life” and “Not Meant To Be,” double-platinum “Bad Girlfriend,” and triple-platinum “RX (Medicate).”
As the biggest smash of their career thus far, the latter marked their third No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks Chart and garnered a nomination for “Rock Song of the Year” at the iHeartRadio Music Awards. They have logged two Top 10 debuts on the Billboard Top 200.
In 2020, “Say Nothing” landed at No. 2 on the Billboard Alternative Albums Chart and No. 3 on the Rock Albums Chart. Plus, it earned praise from American Songwriter, Billboard and Classic Rock Magazine, which awarded it “4-out-of-5 stars.”
Now, the award-winning quartet — Tyler Connolly (lead vocals, guitar), Dave Brenner (guitar, backing vocals), Dean Back (bass), and Joey Dandeneau (drums, backing vocals) — once again deliver a barrage of anthems, beginning with the single “Dinosaur” and more to come.
Saint Asonia united hard rock luminaries Adam Gontier (vocals, guitar) and Mike Mushok (lead guitar) under a new banner, joined by Cale Gontier (bass) and Cody Watkins (drums). Respectively, Adam Gontier and Mushok had reached stratospheric heights in Three Days Grace and Staind, topping charts, packing venues, and selling millions of records.
