Black Crowes to tour

In celebration of the 20th year anniversary of their 1990 debut multi-platinum release Shake Your Money Maker, The Black Crowes have released their first-ever double album of all acoustic material, Croweology, and embarked on an ambitious North American tour.

Critics have raved about the band’s expansive and dynamic performances. The Boston Globe said, “signature tunes as ‘Jealous Again’’ and ‘Thorn in My Pride,’ [sat alongside] revelatory covers… and richly crafted catalog cuts.” The Globe went on to add, “The second set headed into deep space, in both song selection and performances. Here, the guitarists were plugged in and fired up, hitting a frenetic peak.” Salt Lake City’s City Weekly said the group delivered, "…a masterful lesson in how to deliver a true, straightforward rock & roll show…. it was impossible not to be impressed with the sheer force of what was going on onstage.”

The tour will reach Los Angeles on Saturday, December 11th with a highly-anticipated Hollywood Palladium show. This will be the tour’s penultimate stop, as the band will bring “Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys” to a close with their annual multi-night stand at the Fillmore in San Francisco.

Following their “Say Goodnight to the Bad Guys” Tour the band has planned a lengthy hiatus.
Chris Robinson had this to say, “With a smile so wide you can count my teeth and with a heart so full of love that it is spilling over the rim, I offer a humble and simple thank you. Thank you for your time, your imaginations, your heartaches and joy. Thank you for 20 years of cosmic rock n roll. 20 years of keeping it weird. 20 years of chasing horizons and before the band that dares dream out loud puts it down for a while, we are proud to give you our Croweology. This year the music is only for you as we celebrate what has been, what is now and whatever will be.”

Rich Robinson said, “At this milestone in our career, I feel very fortunate that I have had the opportunity to spend my life making music. It’s been 20 years since we started out on this journey. I would like to extend my deep gratitude to all of our fans who have been there with us along the way. We would not have gotten here without your support. Every night I stand on the stage I feel great pride and respect for what we share with our fans. After this tour we are going to take some much needed time to spend with our families. But for now, we are very much looking forward to a great year of touring. I look forward to seeing all your familiar faces again on the road. See you soon.”
