Black Stone Cherry

Musical Group or Musician

American rock band formed in Kentucky in 2001, known for a blend of hard rock and southern-rock influences and for vocalist/guitarist Chris Robertson.

Formed in 2001; original/founding members include Chris Robertson (vocals, guitar), Ben Wells (guitar), Jon Lawhon (bass) and John Fred Young (drums).

Four DeBaser reviews praise Black Stone Cherry's mix of hard rock and southern influences, highlighting Chris Robertson's vocals and catchy choruses. Early albums (self-titled, Folklore And Superstition) are singled out as strongest. Later releases are noted as solid but less adventurous.

For:Fans of hard rock and southern rock; listeners who like 70s/80s-influenced rock and strong vocal-led bands.

 The band's strength lies in Chris Robertson, endowed with a powerful and aggressive voice, yet at the same time very adaptable, indeed he manages to modify his vocal timbre in an impressive way that sometimes reminds you of his other colleagues in some tracks.

 BSC is one of those bands that draw inspiration from all the masters of '70s/'80s rock, so we find references to Lynyrd Skynyrd, but also Led Zeppelin, Bruce Springsteen, Guns ‘n’ Roses, etc.;

 With this new work, the group's sound resonates even more with southern rock influences, maintaining a good level of energy and vitality, thanks in part to the voice of vocalist Chris Robertson.

 A good album without a shadow of a doubt, but, always in my opinion, it is not at the levels of their first two albums.
