New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Galvanizing modern classic rock trio THE BLACK MOODS unveiled an electrifying cover of The Doors' 1970's hit "Roadhouse Blues" featuring The Doors' guitarist Robby Krieger and rock singer-songwriter Diamante last October which "infuse(d) this classic with fresh energy and gusto" (Rock & Blues Muse). THE BLACK MOODS have now shared an extended version of the track along with an extended music video featuring behind-the-scenes clips of the recording session with Krieger and Diamante at Krieger's Los Angeles studio, Love Street Sound. Watch "Roadhouse Blues (ft. Robby Krieger of The Doors & Diamante) - Extended Version" streaming below or via YouTube.

"Playing 'Roadhouse Blues' with the man that wrote it was life changing," remarks THE BLACK MOODS vocalist/guitarist JOSH KENNEDY. "It's something I never ever thought I'd have a chance of doing having grown up in a small town in the Ozarks."
"Lately, I seem to meet more and more young muscians who are into The Doors," says KRIEGER. "It was really fun recording 'Roadhouse Blues' with The Black Moods. They seem to connect with 60's style music."
"We have a big year ahead," KENNEDY adds. "We kicked it off with 'Roadhouse Blues (Extended Version)' and we have a lot of touring coming up too. We have been writing new material and have a new single coming out soon that we can't wait for our fans to hear!"
