Black Robot is a Los Angeles, California based hard rock band formed in 2008 by bassist Jonathan Brightman (JB) and Detroit singer Huck Johns. Their debut album was released June 8, 2010 on Formosa Records/Rocket Science Ventures. Brightman is a founding member of the Grammy nominated band Buckcherry, appearing on their self-titled debut album, as well as their follow up Time Bomb.
Black Robot recorded their debut in 2008 with producer David Cobb (Shooter Jennings, Waylon Jennings, The Tender Idols). Former Buckcherry alumni Devon Glenn & Yogi Lonich and legendary keyboard session player Fred Mandel (Queen, Alice Cooper, Pink Floyd) make guest appearances on the album. In 2009, guitarists Andy Andersson & Staffan Österlind and former Hot Sauce Johnson drummer Possum Hill were added to the line-up. The band has been described as a "new powerhouse" and "good ol’ rock ‘n’ roll influenced by acts like Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Black Crowes and the Rolling Stones".
The band released their first music video for the JJ Cale classic Cocaine on May 5, 2010, debuting it exclusively on top rated gaming website IGN.com. The video features a comical cameo appearance by former Kids in the Hall and NewsRadio star Dave Foley and was filmed at the legendary burlesque club Jumbo’s Clown Room.
