(OMG) 12 Stones return with their new single “Golden Child,” marking their first new song in six years through a joint venture between Judge & Jury Records and SV Records. Both 12 Stones and Judge & Jury are credited as primary artists on the release and track level, signaling a collaborative partnership that blends the band’s legacy sound with Judge & Jury’s acclaimed production and creative reach.
Paul McCoy (Lead Vocals) on “Golden Child”: “The song is about realizing that in some relationships people never actually know each other because they were left clinging to a good memory of a better time, to the point that they can’t see the forest for the trees. Sometimes the truth is right in front of us. We just have to open our eyes and take notice of who we’ve become.”
Founded by multi-platinum producer Howard Benson and Neil Sanderson (drummer and songwriter of Three Days Grace), Judge & Jury brings decades of success in the rock world, offering extensive promotional, production, and songwriting resources. Now gearing up for additional releases in 2026, 12 Stones continue to channel the same intensity and passion that launched their career. Fans can expect more new music soon!
