About
Black Stone Cherry was founded in 2001 by guitarist and lead vocalist Chris Robertson and John Fred Young, drummer and backing vocalist, who were long-time friends. Joining forces with Ben Wells on rhythm and lead guitars and Jon Lawhon on bass guitar, the band started out by playing gigs in their local town of Edmonton, Kentucky. John Fred Young is the son of rhythm guitarist Richard Young from the Grammy Award-winning band The Kentucky Headhunters, which Black Stone Cherry cite as one of their earliest influences, along with Lynyrd Skynyrd, Muddy Waters and Cream. In their early days the band rehearsed and wrote in the same farmhouse that The Kentucky Headhunters had used as rehearsal space.
The band quickly gained a following for their live shows in their home state of Kentucky, and by 2005 they were signed to Roadrunner Records. The band released their first eponymously titled album in 2006 and were given a huge welcome back at their home town, where they performed for over 1500 fans. A live album recorded at London's Astoria in October 2007 was produced to mark the final show of their first international tour and was released in a limited edition of just 1,000 copies. In the same year the band won an award for Best New Band at the London Classic Rock Awards.
It is their tours for which the band is best known. An arena tour of the UK and Ireland in 2008 saw them take to the stage with Whitesnake and Def Leppard, with Black Stone Cherry as the opening act. May 2009 saw the band supporting Nickelback on the European leg of their Dark Horse Tour. They have supported Lynyrd Skynyrd and Bad Company and were the headline act at the 2013 Download Festival.

by Timmer on 5/2/22TempleLive Wichita - WichitaI wish we would have known there was going to be 3 opening bands. We live a hour away. We could’ve made better arrangements for our dog. We had to leave early to get home to care for him.

by VVdrummer on 12/18/21The Loft - AtlantaBlackstone Cherry just played a great small venue in ATL and absolutely blew the roof off. One of the best rock shows of 2021- a MUST SEE band. Georgia Thunderbolts opened and also “ rocked the house”!
Rating: 5 out of 5 A must see band if you like southern rock
by Mainecat on 12/18/21The Loft - AtlantaGreat show and band. This show was towards the end of their tour so they were very tight. Lots of energy, good setlist and Chris sang great. Played mostly newer songs, but also a few off the first 2 cd's. John Fred Young is an awesome drummer and Chris Robinson not only sings but plays leads, very entertaining to watch. Another great thing, the show was only $20!
Rating: 5 out of 5 Great show, great venue
by Steve on 12/18/21The Loft - AtlantaThe crowd was less than I expected, but is was a Wednesday. Black Stone Cherry played very enthusiastically regardless. The sound was very good, the lighting good but nothing special. I'm glad I made the trip downtown to catch the show!

Rating: 5 out of 5 Awesome show!
by Will on 10/9/21The Vogel at Count Basie Center for the Arts - Red BankLove these guys, every time seeing them is a great experience. It was our first time seeing the Georgia Thunderbolts but loved them also. First time attending an event at the Vogel, was a different experience, will have to see a few more shows before making a judgement on the venue itself.

by Rodsta on 5/13/19Center Stage Theater - AtlantaIt was a great concert. I had seen Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown before and they were a huge draw for me, they always rock the joint. I knew I was going to like Black Stone Cherry (first time seeing them live) and now I am a huge fan of theirs as well. The Center Stage venue was perfect. (I was disappointed for the artists that the place wasn't full but weeknights are tough.) The artists were all very professional and brought the same energy as if it was 20K people.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Perfect venue
by SusanB on 5/12/19Center Stage Theater - AtlantaThe show was incredible for a small venue. The intimate setting did not stop Black Stone Cherry from performing at their best. Love the show and venue. Could not beat it with a large venue. Scale 1 to 10...it was 10+ as perfect.
