Black Country Communion, the supergroup featuring guitarist Joe Bonamassa, vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple, The Dead Daisies), drummer Jason Bonham (Led Zeppelin), and keyboardist Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater, Alice Cooper, Billy Idol), has confirmed that will be on stage at next year’s Keeping The Blues Alive At Sea IX cruise, sailing from Miami, Florida to Cozumel, Mexico on March 18-22, 2024. This will be the first show the band performs since February 2018.

In a September 2022 interview with Andy Hall of the Des Moines, Iowa radio station Lazer 103.3, Bonamassa spoke about the possibility of a fifth studio album with Black Country Communion. He said: “We have quite the group chat going right now. So we’re gonna start — Glenn and I are gonna start working on writing some songs. We’re just gonna get together in October, next month, and we’re gonna start. And we’re gonna see if we can get everybody’s schedule lined up for next year and do another record. ‘Cause I really miss those guys. And when we fire on all cylinders, there’s nothing better.

Black Country Communion‘s next LP will be the follow-up to “BCCIV”, which was released in September 2017.
