Seether to Rock the 2021 BFFR in Kennewick

"Country Song"

Seether performed that ball buster at the 2014 Benton Franklin Fair & Rodeo, welcomed by 97 Rock, it was the 11th song on their set list and you can reminisce about every song the band performed in order from that night, August 21, 2014, here.

Since then, Seether has released Poison the Parish (2017) and their latest, their 8th LP which dropped in late August of 2020, titled Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum (Latin for 'if you want peace, prepare for war').

Seether, the multiplatinum rock radio anthem-making machine, features huge riffs, soaring melodies and a twin-guitar attack crunch. They have something to say, and they stand behind it.

Twenty years into a stellar career, the South African band originally formed under the moniker "Saron Gas" until 2002, when they moved to America and changed their handle to Seether to avoid confusion with the deadly chemical agent known as sarin gas.

Lead vocalist and guitarist Shaun Morgan is the band's longest tenured member, bassist Dale Stewart joined shortly after formation while drummer John Humphrey joined up for the band's second album, Karma and Effect in 2005. Since 2018, Seether has employed Corey Lowery as a second guitarist.

Sweet! More guitar, and even louder, to catch the likes of "Dangerous" and "Bruised and Bloodied" the singles selected for release of their latest album.

Averaging 90 gigs a year, Seether has amassed over twenty Top 5 singles, three platinum and four gold records, and a gold-selling, fan-favorite DVD.

Things That Can Blow Away in a Tri-Cities, Washington Windstorm

Well-known for its wine and rivers, Tri-Cities is also notorious for its wind. The curvature of the basin and proximity to the river makes the howling, swirling winds feel just as at home here as we do. Don't be surprised to see some of these objects get some "mad air" as a good ol' fashioned windstorm stirs it up! Whether it's a trampoline in Pasco or a screen door in Kennewick, make sure you've got everything secured.

LOOK: Here are the 50 best beach towns in America

Every beach town has its share of pluses and minuses, which got us thinking about what makes a beach town the best one to live in. To find out, Stacker consulted data from WalletHub, released June 17, 2020, that compares U.S. beach towns. Ratings are based on six categories: affordability, weather, safety, economy, education and health, and quality of life. The cities ranged in population from 10,000 to 150,000, but they had to have at least one local beach listed on TripAdvisor. Read the full methodology here. From those rankings, we selected the top 50. Readers who live in California and Florida will be unsurprised to learn that many of towns featured here are in one of those two states.

Keep reading to see if your favorite beach town made the cut.
