The Stone Foxes Killed Robert Johnson

The Stone Foxes proclaim "I Killed Robert Johnson" in the lead off single from their second full length record "Bears & Bulls," which hits stores on July 6th.

The song tells a dark story wrapped up in booze, jealousy, blood and dirty guitar riffs. All the perfect ingredients for one bad ass rock n' roll song. Check out a video of the track here

From Avi from the Stone Foxes on Robert Johnson: "Robert Johnson is one of the last truly mysterious people who will ever walk the face of the earth. There are only 2 pictures of him around.Stories of Robert Johnson have been invented, fabricated, and hyperbolized and no one will ever be able to tell the truth from fiction. In many ways, his truth is fiction. These days, we have too much documentation to allow a person like that to exist. In the age of digital photos, Facebook, birth certificates, and laws and regulations, there could never be another Robert Johnson. The lonesome cowboy, the traveling troubadour, the man with no past: these are all people we will never get to meet. Bob Dylan almost succeeded, but failed. I liked the idea that someone living knew the real story of his death, so I tried to give a voice to that character. Wherever he may be..."
