In Front of March 6, 2026 EP Release
Kentucky’s finest, BLACK STONE CHERRY, will release their brand-new EP, Celebrate, which will be digitally available on March 6, 2026 via Mascot Records. Following the recent release of lead single “Neon Eyes,” they have now dropped a new song and music video for the EP’s title track, “Celebrate.”
BLACK STONE CHERRY are a band in the truest sense of the term. Hard rockers of enormous heart. Four accomplished songwriters with rock, metal, roots, blues and soul in their blood. Old friends with an instinctive, compassionate sense for what each other is feeling.
On the new single and its accompanying music video, the band share: “We had so much fun coming up with the concept for the ‘Celebrate’ video! We got on a phone call with director Kyle Loftus and we all hashed out ideas until we landed on something that got us all excited! We wanted the video to show what it’s like to be stuck in something, whether that be a boring job or maybe stuck in your own head, and how any little opportunity can lead to a small victory! The song itself is about celebrating every little thing in life, even if it’s just making it through the day. The video came out amazing with an amazing actor/musician, Aaron Paulsen as the lead and we get chills every time we watch it! The confetti at the end was one of our main requests as we wanted to visually show what it mentally feels like to celebrate inside your mind!”
Produced by the band themselves, Celebrate is an EP of contrasts. From a dreamily woozy, Nirvana-laced grunge singalong (“I’m Fine”), to personal heartache (“Deep”) and a curveball cover of Simple Minds classic “Don’t You (Forget About Me)”, featuring guest vocals from old Black Stone friend Tyler Connolly (Theory Of A Deadman).
BLACK STONE CHERRY are masters of taking a somber subject and flipping it on its head, creating punchy and empowering rock songs. “Any piece of art is a snapshot of that artist’s life,” singer/guitarist Chris Robertson reasons. “So, I look at these songs on the EP as a culmination of everything we’ve lived since Screamin’ At The Sky.”
They’ll play to thousands in an arena or festival field, followed by a 100-capacity pub, and put on the exact same show. This is why they connect with audiences. They write music that makes you feel something. No polish, no faking it, just moments that matter. You can see that channeled throughout the record.
They will be touring the USA through November and December with Them Dirty Roses and Ayron Jones, and keep your eyes peeled for wider international touring announcements.
