The concert will be part of Citizen Soldier's HeartSupport Tour, which will kick off Aug. 7 in Des Moines, Iowa.
The tour is named in partnership with HeartSupport — a mental health nonprofit founded by August Burns Red frontman Jake Luhrs.
Since its formation in 2016, the band has discussed mental health issues in its music.
The band has said its name is an attempt to personify the "struggles being fought within."
Its music has become an anthem for those battling anxiety, depression and trauma, and its live shows foster connection and catharsis for fans.
The band recently released its eighth album, "Family Heirlooms." Its current single is "Figure Me Out."
Adelitas Way, 10 Years
Rockers Adelitas Way have had nine songs hit the Top 30 on the Mainstream Rock chart, including the 2012 No. 1 hit "Criticize."
Three of its seven albums since its 2009 self-titled debut have hit the Top 10 on the Hard Rock Albums chart — most recently 2016's "Getaway." Its most recent album was 2023's "Power."
10 Years is best known for its 2005, gold No. 1 Alternative chart hit "Wasteland." That song helped push its third album, 2005's "The Autumn Effect," to gold sales.
Five of its albums since have hit the Top 10 on Billboard's Alternative chart, and it has had 10 songs hit the Top 30 on the Alternative chart — most recently 2020's "The Optimist."
