US Southern Rockers Preacher Stone Talk Upcoming UK Tour With Rock ‘N’ Load
Rock ‘N’ Load caught up with Ronnie & Wyatt of Preacher Stone to talk about their new album ‘V’ released earlier this year via NoNo Bad Dog Productions (Gotta love that name!) and of course their upcoming UK Tour dates with amigos Tom Killner and Sons Of Liberty as well as that a Maid Of Stone appearance alongside the likes of Mr Big!
Kicking boots out of North Carolina USA, their high-octane, 200 proof, rock-n-roll guitar-driven songs about the common man with heart-wrenching smoky bar frequenting tales, and the swagger of their live performances have earned them a legion of faithful fans known as “The Congregation”. Alongside Ronnie and founding member Marty Hill (lead guitar), the band of brothers are steeped in musical heritage with Ben Robinson (guitar), Jim Bolt (bass), the since passed away and sorely missed Johnny Webb (B3 & piano) and Wyatt (drums). The album cover art pays tribute to Johnny and honours him bearing his signature. Their song ‘Not Today’ was featured on two seasons of the hit Fox TV series Sons of Anarchy and 2023 saw them embark on debut UK shows to rapturous acclaim from fans and critics alike. Previous tours include across the United States and Europe having shared the stage with legendary acts Lynyrd Skynyrd, ZZ Top, Deep Purple and more. This year sees the band make a warmly welcomed return to UK shores for an exclusive run of shows with Tom Killner and Sons of Liberty that culminates in a main stage appearance at the much loved Maid of Stone Festival Mote Park, Kent with tickets available via band website.

Preacher Stone’s affable frontman Ronnie Riddle exclaims, “We’re really looking forward to coming back over, making new friends and seeing good folk from last time. We love Tom’s music so it’s a really good fit and it’ll be a great night for all. The Louisiana Bristol will be cool to play as it’s a sort of coming as my mother’s family are from there originally.” Tom Killner exudes, “Really looking forward to playing places like The Patriot Crumlin and Feathers Inn Lichfield as they are new to us and have heard really great things. It’s super cool to be heading out with Preacher Stone, with us both playing new songs to new people. Get along and we’ll see you there!”
