In the following video interview, BareBonesMusic.com speaks with BLACK STONE CHERRY vocalist/guitarist Chris Robertson and bassist Jon Lawhon. They discuss their new album, Between The Devil & The Deep Blue Sea, how the band took a different approach to writing and recording this record and how it shows more of the band's individual personalities more so than in previous releases. The guys also talk about playing a show in their home state of Kentucky, enjoying being able to see friends and family and learning some valuable lessons from THE KENTUCKY HEADHUNTERS who helped them get started.
