Shinedown bassist Eric Bass has shared a new solo song called "Azalia."

The track's title refers to one of the main characters in the storyline told by Bass' upcoming debut solo album, I Had a Name. Bass describes Azalia as "a former warrior monk who has thrown off her religion to become an assassin."

"In the song 'Azalia' we find her on the run for her life with the government's demons close behind," Bass says. "She will have to rely on her tenacity in order to not give up, and on her natural abilities to survive. The keys to which are contained within a gift her mother gave her as a child."

You can listen to "Azalia" now via digital outlets and watch its accompanying video streaming on YouTube.

I Had a Name drops Feb. 28. It also includes the previously released single "Mind Control."

Shinedown's most recent album is 2022's Planet Zero.
