Hughes later revealed that the band in question, from Baltimore, Maryland, reportedly demanded $500,000 for the right to use the name Black Country, a move which he quickly condemned as "just rude".
The name Black Country Communion was not finalised until May 2010, after the threat of legal action from another band prevented the group from using the name Black Country. The completed quartet first performed together during the encore at one of Bonamassa's solo shows in Riverside, California on March 17, 2010, playing "One Last Soul" and a cover version of the Deep Purple song " Mistreated". The idea of enlisting Bonham and keyboardist Derek Sherinian to complete the band's lineup was suggested by Shirley, after a second guitarist was briefly considered instead of a keyboardist. It was at this point that the two decided to form a new band. Hughes and Bonamassa reunited three years later in November 2009, performing together at the House of Blues in Los Angeles for Guitar Center. Bonamassa also worked with Jason Bonham that year, when the drummer performed on the guitarist's fifth studio album You & Me on the recommendation of producer and mutual friend Kevin Shirley. Glenn Hughes and Joe Bonamassa first met at the 2006 NAMM Show in Anaheim, California, after which they jammed together at Hughes' studio in Hollywood with the idea to make music together in the future. Glenn Hughes and Joe Bonamassa formed Black Country Communion in November 2009. After six years working on separate projects, the band plans to enter studio for a potential fifth album in 2023. Hughes and Bonamassa later reconciled and the band reunited in late 2016, with a fourth album BCCIV released in 2017. Sherinian later joined Bonamassa's touring band, while Hughes and Bonham formed California Breed with guitarist Andrew Watt.
Days later, Hughes confirmed that the band was officially over, hinting that he would continue working with Bonham and Sherinian under a new collective name. In early 2013, after months of public tensions, Bonamassa announced he was no longer a member of Black Country Communion, with the question over whether the group would continue with another guitarist unclear. The band released its third album, Afterglow, in 2012. Black Country Communion 2 followed the next year, which was promoted on the group's first concert tour of the US and Europe. The group's sound is intentionally reminiscent of popular classic rock groups of the 1970s, reflecting the previous work of frontman Hughes (in bands such as Trapeze and Deep Purple) as well as the link between Bonham and his father John's band Led Zeppelin.Īfter playing together for a while, the group released its self-titled debut album in 2010. The name Black Country Communion is derived from the term Black Country, which refers to an area of the West Midlands of England where Hughes and Bonham grew up.
From the advice of their producer, Kevin Shirley, they recruited Bonham and Sherinian to finalize the band's lineup. Hughes and Bonamassa started the side project in November 2009 after an impromptu performance together. Formed in 2009, the band is a supergroup composed of bassist and lead vocalist Glenn Hughes, guitarist and second vocalist Joe Bonamassa, drummer Jason Bonham and keyboardist Derek Sherinian.
