Enjoy the debut album ‘Cowboys In Pinstriped Suits” released via Off Yer Rocka recordings 31st January 2025. Since the band announced they were working on their highly anticipated new album, “The Band Rolls On”, what was already becoming a chance for a musical rebirth metamorphosized into something far bigger and more ambitious. The final cuts feature distinguished collaborations from a multitude of Rock Royalty. The band, their management and close friends within the industry all agreed that this should be treated as a stand-alone new project, a Rock ‘n’ Roll Collective going under the name “Black Eyed Sons”, a nod to a previous album from their extensive back catalogue. The revised album title, “Cowboys in Pinstriped Suits is named after one of the eleven tracks and features none other than Def Leppards Joe Elliott alongside Alice Cooper guitarist Ryan Roxie and bass grooves from Chip ZNuff. Guy Griffin commented “It’s been nice to take a break and focus on the writing. Working with our own band as well as so many friends within the industry has done nothing but inspire us to write and create this exciting new project. We’ve done the hard work getting the tracks laid down, we’re now looking forward to going back out on the road as Black Eyed Sons and delivering something entirely new from five musicians who’ve been playing together for over twenty years. Relationships break down sometimes, thats Rock ‘n’ Roll, everyone does their thing, but we want to make sure there’s no confusion as to what this is. Whilst we’re proud of our musical history, that was then, this is now. It’s onwards and upwards.. so let the music do the talking.” Joe Elliott added, “Having worked with these guys since 2009 in the greatest other band I could ever hope to work with, The Down n Outz, it just felt totally natural for me to reciprocate the love these guys have shown me by contributing to what is essentially a new beginning for them. So welcome to the mad world of Rock n Roll, you Black Eyed Sons..” – Joe Elliott (Cowboys in Pinstriped Suits).
