Kentucky rockers Black Stone Cherry announce their signing to new label home, Mascot Label Group.

The band will go into Barrick Recording Studio in Glasgow, KY today to record their fifth studio album. Taking a “back to their roots” approach, the album will be recorded in the same way and same place as their eponymous debut album, which broke the band out of the small southern backwater and onto the world stage.

"We are proud to announce we've partnered with the Mascot Label Group,” said guitarist Ben Wells. “Their eclectic roster speaks for itself and we are excited to see how BSC can fit into their mixture of great talent. From the employees to the owner of the label, we feel we're amongst a great team and can't wait to start a new cycle with everyone involved! We begin recording our 5th studio album on October 7th and are beyond ready to get new music to your ears! We're recording in our hometown with the same engineer we recorded our first album with, so needless to say, that mojo will be back in action and the riffs will tear you up! See you all on tour with a whole new BSC very soon!"

Black Stone Cherry are set to release their debut live DVD+CD, Blu+ray+CD, Digital Video, and Digital Audio, Thank You: Livin’ Live via Eagle Vision on October 30th. The performance was shot on Black Stone Cherry’s Magic Mountain tour, exactly one year prior to the disc’s scheduled release date, at the band’s sold-out Birmingham LG Arena show on October 30th, 2014. A new live clip of of "Me And Mary Jane" has been released and can be seen below.
 
In just seven years, Black Stone Cherry progressed from playing 200-capacity club gigs in the UK to headlining their first arena tour. This DVD documents one of those triumphant shows, filmed at Birmingham’s LG Arena and showcases the band’s long-standing love affair with their British audience. Filmed in high definition and available on DVD, Blu-ray and twin DVD+CD pack, the incendiary live set features crowd favourites from all four of the band’s studio albums, plus bonus interview material and additional live tracks shot at this year’s Download Festival.
 
The band is thrilled to bring this release to their fanbase, as guitarist Ben Wells attests: “We are beyond excited to bring you all this live DVD. Growing up watching my Elvis and Aerosmith DVDs and VHS tapes, I never thought I would be in a band that would one day be releasing one - and in an arena at that! We are so honored, humbled, and thankful to have the fans and friends we have in this business and we couldn't do it without the grace of God and all of your support! Sit back and enjoy this live BSC experience. We had a blast filming it!"

Frontman Chris Robertson continues: “I remember our first gig headlining in Birmingham at the Barfly and I thought about that night many times as we were filming this DVD. It was truly an amazing experience that we will cherish forever and we have to give all the credit to the amazing fans for showing up and making it all possible!”
