Buckcherry will now be distributed through EMI Music in the US and internationally through The Eleven Seven Music Group. Eleven Seven used to take care of all distribution before and the band had an upstream deal through Atlantic. Their current single “Talk To Me” is the #1 most added song at active rock radio and their album Black Butterfly will include the new track “Highway Star”, the TNT NASCAR theme, on iTunes starting on June 30th. Buckcherry will be performing “Highway Star” and “Talk To Me” on the infield at the Coke Zero 400 in Daytona on July 4th Check out a promo video of Buckcherry’s NASCAR at: http://www.nascar.com/promos/tnt/buckcherry/2009/.

Buckcherry is also on tour with KISS this fall. You can vote on where they’ll play by going to www.eventful.com/KISS.

“As an artist, there’s nothing better than knowing that our record label is as invested in our success as Eleven Seven is. Eleven Seven Music has proven itself and now joining forces with EMI Distribution, the band couldn’t be happier,” said Buckcherry’s Josh Todd.
Allen Kovac, Founder and CEO of The Eleven Seven Music Group notes, “Our formula is to time our records for a career, activating the fan base directly and allowing the content to find its audience over a period of time. It was two years between “Crazy Bitch” and “Sorry” and we kept working, the band kept working and we had a hit. Julie Greenwald and her team are amazing, dedicated professionals and we appreciate all that they contributed to this band. We look forward to all of the possibilities we have in front of us with our new global distribution partner EMI Music.”
