Alter Bridge + Black Stone Cherry Confirm Co-Headline Tour This November & Tickets

Alter Bridge have confirmed their much rumoured UK tour with Black Stone Cherry, taking place this November.

The US rock bands will play 6 UK arena shows, kicking off in Birmingam on November 22nd, followed by gigs in Cardiff, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow and London.

The new shows will see Kentucky's Black Stone Cherry, comprised of vocalist Chris Robertson, guitarist Ben Wells, bassist Jon Lawhon and drummer John Fred Young, promoting new third studio album 'Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea' following its release last month.

Black Stone Cherry are a band adept at creating both timeless rock 'n' roll and new, innovative sounds. While the band's 2008 record, 'Folklore And Superstition', was a compelling tribute to brotherhood and history, the new album is the summation of a year in the life of the band — every emotion, triumph, loss, romance and everything in between — it's all there on 'Between The Devil And The Deep Blue Sea'.

Touring alongside fellow hard-rockers Alter Bridge, this double-header is definitely not to be missed.

Formed in Orlando 2004 after the very public collapse of Creed, Alter Bridge is made up of former Creed members and vocalist Myles Kennedy, who you may have seen performing live with Slash on the former Guns N' Roses guitarist's recent tour.

Releasing their third studio album last October, 'AB III' is a departure from the band's first two albums for several reasons, the primary reason being that it is a loose concept album, a first for Alter Bridge, with lyrical themes of mostly struggling with faith. It is more dynamic and progressive, musically, and it features lyrics that are much darker than the lyrics on the band's previous albums. The album is also the first Alter Bridge album to be released on Roadrunner Records.

Alter Bridge + Black Stone Cherry Tour Dates are as follows:

Nov 22nd - Birmingham LG Arena
Nov 23rd - Cardiff Motorpoint Arena
Nov 24th - Manchester Evening News Arena
Nov 26th - Newcastle Metro Radio Arena
Nov 27th - Glasgow SECC
Nov 29th - London Wembley Arena

Tickets for Alter Bridge/Black Stone Cherry are onsale next Friday at 9am.
