Name Origin:
Chris Robertson explained:
"We got the name from a cigar box. It was Black Stone Cigars with a cherry flavor so we decided to divide into three words instead of two. And after realizing what the name was, we found it did have some meaning, because our band is really influenced by soul and blues so I guess the black part of it would be that and then of course the hard rock for stoned and the cherry is just a little something on top for the girls. I mean, it's one of those things that just happened and made total sense after the fact."
