Black Country Communion, the supergroup formed by acclaimed musicians Joe Bonamassa, Glenn Hughes, Jason Bonham and Derek Sherinian, have announced their fifth studio album, aptly titled V. Ahead of its June 14 release, the band released the lead single, “Stay Free.”
The upcoming LP marks Black Country Communion's first album in seven years, following 2017's. BCCIV. It was produced by Kevin Shirley, who managed all five of the band's albums.
Shirley stated: “For a band that began as a collection of the best practitioners of their instruments, they quickly found a unique sound. This time, it's more purposeful, the riffs are harder, and there are hooks! Yes, hooks! “It is the most cohesive album, full of soul and determination, and I think this will be the benchmark for Black Country Communion.”
Hughes added: “In my opinion we had the best time recording this album at Sunset Sound in Hollywood, lots of fun and a magical recording. See you in Music.”
Black Country Communion will perform a show at Culture Room in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on March 17 (tickets available here), and the Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea Cruisesailing from Miami to Cozumel, Mexico from March 18 to 22.
