Kentucky boys BLACK STONE CHERRY are set for a big arena tour as special guests on the forthcoming WHITESNAKE / DEF LEPPARD tour in June.
The boys, who won the prestigious ‘Best New Band’ gong at the Classic Rock Awards in November, are very excited at the prospect of teaming up with two of classic rock’s biggest UK acts. Guitarist Ben Wells enthuses: “Touring with Def Leppard and Whitesnake is such an honour! Both bands are legendary in their own right and for us, both have some of the most influential musicians to date. This is definitely the perfect way to begin touring again in the UK for ’08 and we’re immensely proud to be a part of such an awesome line up…now, let’s ROCK!”
BLACK STONE CHERRY’s current eponymous debut album is in stores now. Their second album is pencilled for an August release through Roadrunner Records. Stay tuned for more details as they happen.
