Wolverhampton gig for Black Star Riders with Walsall's Stone Broken in support
Black Star Riders will arrive in Wolverhampton in the autumn to promote the release of their fourth studio album.
Another State of Grace, released in September was produced and mixed by Jay Ruston (Stone Sour, Anthrax, Uriah Heep), and the promotion tour will see them headline a big night of noise as the KK's Steel Mill series continues at Starworks Warehouse on Frederick Street.
The main support on the night will be from rising Walsall rockers Stone Broken.
Black Star Riders - Ricky Warwick (lead vocals/guitar), Scott Gorham (lead guitar) and Robert Crane (bass), together with recent additions Chad Szeliga (drums) and Christian Martucci (lead guitar) - recorded the album at Sphere Studios in Burbank, California last month.

Gorham adds: "It was great to be back in Los Angeles and recording with Jay Ruston was an absolute pleasure. I am excited to see everyone’s reactions to this amazing record…and I can’t wait to get back on the road and play you these new songs.”
