This follows a new version of “Out Of Pocket” that was released on October 10, and is already burning up the radio airwaves across North America, the U.K. and Europe. That new recording features Jesse Leach from Killswitch Engage. On release, the band shared, “We have been fans of KSE since we can remember. Having Jesse be a part of one of our songs, bringing his intensity and passion, has truly made this a special moment in our sonic journey.” Killswitch Engage’s Jesse Leach added, “I’d always appreciated the Black Stone guys as good humans and songwriters. However, when I finally saw them live it all clicked for me! They are a great live band, and I am definitely a fan after seeing their show! Being asked to jump on this track was such an honor and a pleasure as well! It’s a damn good rock n roll song!” The original recording has been streamed five million times, while cumulative plays Screaming At The Sky’s repertoire across all DSPs now exceeds 25 million total streams. Total streams for the songs on Human Condition now exceed 80 Million plays.
On October 26, Black Stone Cherry was inducted in to the Kentucky Music Hall Of Fame. As a band that has always embraced and celebrated their home state, this was a tremendous honor. The band shares, “We started this band in middle of the woods in 2001, in a dry county, and no driver’s license between us. Playing restaurants, gymnasiums, coffee shops, and anywhere that would allow us to set up our gear. We made our own t-shirts, we made our own backdrop, we made our stickers, and we made our own music. Our ‘always say WHEN, not IF, mentality coupled with the support of Jesus, our families and communities have allowed us to do some incredible things so far in our career. However, having our band name forever etched inside the walls of our state’s music Hall Of Fame is incredibly humbling and something we will carry with us forever. It is also a testament to pouring absolutely everything you have into whatever passion burns inside you. We are extremely thankful, honored, and blessed for this achievement.”
The band’s most recent studio album Screamin’ At The Sky features all-new material written collaboratively while the band was on tour. When it came time to record, BSC tried something they’ve always dreamed of doing: tracking an album at The Plaza Theater in Glasgow, Kentucky – a legendary 1020-seat venue built in 1934 that boasts meticulous acoustics. In June of 2022, they rented the whole place, brought in all its recording equipment and trusty engineer, Jordan Westfall. They set up the basement as the control room and the stage as the live drum room.
Over the past two decades, the Kentucky Southern rockers have shaken stages from arenas to festivals across Europe, North America and other territories across the globe. The band just completed a tour in the U.S. with Clutch and Rivals Sons and today head out on a run of performances from October 29 through November 15 with Ayron Jones. On November 17, Skillet will join the bill for appearances through November 23. Black Stone Cherry is Chris Robertson (vocals/guitar), Ben Wells (guitar/vocals), John Fred Young (drums) and Steve Jewell (bass).
