Skillet at the Effingham Performance Center

Fri, Sep 19 , 2025 • 7:00pm

1325 Outer Belt West, Effingham, IL 62401

Skillet is a hard rock powerhouse—22M+ albums sold, 3 Top 5 Billboard 200 smashes, and arena-shaking shows in 26 countries. Now they’re back with Revolution—their fiercest, loudest, most fearless album yet.

After nearly three decades, eleven albums, and thousands of shows worldwide, Skillet play louder, fight harder, and sound more rebellious than ever. As of 2024, the band have received two-time GRAMMY® Award nominations, picked up a Billboard Music Award, and landed three albums in the Top 5 of the Billboard 200. Selling over 22 million units worldwide, they have notched multiplatinum, platinum, or gold RIAA certifications for a total of 12 singles and four full-length albums.

As a live force of nature, they have touched down on four continents and in 26 countries, packing arenas everywhere from the Middle East to Russia. Not to mention, Skillet expanded their world with the graphic novel series EDEN. The first installment stood out as Z2 Comics’ best-selling book of all-time. Now, the global hard rock quartet—John Cooper [lead vocals, bass], Korey Cooper [guitar, keys], Jen Ledger [drums, vocals], and Seth Morrison [lead guitar]—deliver an insurgent, infectious, and inimitable body of work with their twelfth full-length offering and first-ever independent album, Revolution, led by the single “Unpopular.”
