BLACK EYED SONS PREMIERE MUSIC VIDEO FOR ‘COWBOYS IN PINSTRIPED SUITS’ FEATURING JOE ELLIOTT
Black Eyed Sons release official music video for the title track of their album, Cowboys in Pinstriped Suits, featuring legendary Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott. This song is more than just music—it’s a heartfelt tribute to the dreams that fuel the rock ‘n’ roll journey.
Guy Griffin shares, ’This video features the cover star of our album (I call him the Ziggy Kid ) He could be any of us , the ones who grew up dreaming of Rock n’ Roll in a golden era for music . The video’s a surreal glam rock dystopian space age adventure condensed into 4 and a half minutes. We hope you enjoy it’’
Guy adds: “I wanted to write a song that’s both a celebration and a bittersweet reflection on my golden days of rock ’n’ roll. As a teenager, I dreamt of living that life—of standing in the spotlight, feeling the roar of the crowd. And then, that dream came true… but dreams don’t always turn out exactly as you picture them. Careful what you wish for! This song is my love letter to the era that shaped me. It’s in the style of Mott, Bowie, and the greats, so who else would I ask to bring it to life but Joe Elliott? Our mutual love of Mott the Hoople is what first brought us together in The Down ’n’ Outz, and now, here we are again. It’s a song about rock stars, featuring a true rock star, and backed by the talents of my old friend Ryan Roxie (Alice Cooper) and the incredible Chip Z’Nuff.”
The album has struck a deep chord with both fans and critics . Fireworks Magazine describes it as “a great street urchin of a rock ’n’ roll album,” Rock Candy Magazine praises the band’s musicianship, noting that “Black Eyed Sons have emerged with their chops fully intact. The quality of the songwriting shines through.” Classic Rock Magazine highlights the album’s depth, stating, “There’s hidden songwriting depths here,” while Rush On Rock adds to the acclaim, declaring, “The songwriting, by the way, is supreme.”
