Sleeping With Sirens, Rain City Drive & Shyeye – Nevermore Hall – Baltimore, MD – November 8, 2026

It was a wild Sunday night in Baltimore as Sleeping with Sirens took the stage for a sold-out show on their An Ending In Itself tour. With Rain City Drive and Shyeye as the opening acts, the venue was packed from wall to wall, and the energy levels never wavered.

Opening the night was Shyeye, hailing from Nashville, Tennessee. Their setlist consisted of “Falling,” “Nothing,” “Wolf,” “Pretend,” “Drowning,” “Threads,” and “Knot.” They connected with the crowd immediately, and their moody lighting and intense stage presence set the scene for the night that was to come.

Immediately following their set was Rain City Drive, who kicked off their performance with a popular track, “Frozen,” immediately engaging the crowd as they sang along. Their set continued with tracks like “Concrete Closure,” “Slither,” “Talk to a Friend,” “Prayers,” “Wish You the Best,” “Heavier,” “Neverbloom,” “Blood Runs Cold,” and “Medicate Me.” Frontman Matt McAndrews had powerful vocals that filled the room, while the heavy instrumentals kept the energy levels rising. They are always a fun time live, and this set was definitely no exception!

As the lights went low, it was time for Sleeping with Sirens to take the stage. Each band member appeared swallowed by intense red lighting as they kicked off their set with “Kick Me,” which had the crowd-surfers commencing within minutes. The setlist was full of hits, including “The Bomb Dot Com V2.0,” “A Trophy Father’s Trophy Son,” “Better Off Dead,” “Scene Two: Roger Rabbit,” “Do It Now Remember It Later,” “If I’m James Dean, You’re Audrey Hepburn,” and “If You Can’t Hang.”

Kellin Quinn’s vocals were absolutely incredible, while the energy from the rest of the band just continued to grow. Bassist Justin Hills and guitarists Nick Martin and Tony Pizzuti were hitting split jumps and spins more times than I could count, with drummer Matty Best absolutely killing it on the kit. Crowd-surfers piled over the barricade one after the next, as the band commanded the stage from the second they stepped onto it. They also made sure to highlight some tracks from their latest album, An Ending In Itself, with the title track making the setlist, as well as “Forever/Always,” and “House of Matches.” The newer songs sat right along the old favorites as the crowd sang along to every word just as loudly.

Sleeping with Sirens proved once again why they’ve remained a staple of the scene for so many years. From Shyeye and Rain City Drive’s heavy-hitting performances to the main event, each band delivered from start to finish. If the An Ending In Itself tour is coming near you, you won’t want to miss it. It’s certainly a night Baltimore won’t be forgetting!
