Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson has given a surprising assessment of his band. “We don’t know shit about music,” the rocker firmly declared during an appearance on the Broken Record podcast. “We didn’t learn music… I don’t read music. Rich doesn’t read music.” While Robinson noted that other musicians “do the fuckin’ math,” he argued his band has found success by focusing on the emotion of songs, rather than the technicalities.

Ronnie Wood made a surprise appearance at the Black Crowes‘ concert in L.A. on Friday night, joining them for a rendition of Faces‘ “Stay With Me.” Chris Robinson of the Black Crowes brought the Rolling Stones guitarist out on stage relatively early in the set, announcing to the audience they were about to be joined by a man who “doesn’t need an introduction but he’s going to get one.” You can view fan-filmed footage of their performance below. The Black Crowes kicked off their 2024 tour earlier this month at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, which included a cover of the Velvet Underground‘s “...

The Black Crowes are planning to release a new version of their 2000 album Live at the Greek with their own songs included for the first time. A record of their curtailed tour with Jimmy Page, the Crowes were subject to a clause with their former label at the time, which forbade them from releasing material of their own. As a result, Live at the Greek has never included “Remedy,” “Wiser Time,” “No Speak, No Slave” and their cover of “Hard To Handle,” focusing instead on the Led Zeppelin songs performed with Page.

As much of a fever dream as the Black Crowesreunion has been, the Atlanta band were really excited about another renewed bond, thanks to Aerosmith’sPeace Outfarewell tour which began last September. The Crowes nabbed the coveted opening slot on the outing, which reunited the two groups for the first time since the Atlanta-bred band handled similar duties as they were starting to promote 1990’s Shake Your Money Maker. As Rich Robinson tells UCR now, it was a “full circle” moment that they were deeply grateful for. Even though the trek was postponed after only three concerts due to Steven Tyler’...

The Black Crowes have rarely strayed from form since their 1990 debut, Shake Your Money Maker, introduced them as one of rock’s best revivalist bands of the last decade of the century. And while band turnaround and turmoil often came close to derailing their story, they’ve persevered to make some of the best-unfettered rock ‘n’ roll music of the era, as you will see in the below list of The Black Crowes Albums Ranked Worst to Best Brothers Chris (vocals) and Rich (guitar) Robinson’s often public spats have threatened to pivot the spotlight from what matters most. But their tumultuous relations...

So much has been made of Chris and Rich Robinson’s public spats over the past couple of decades that it’s easy to forget that the Black Crowes were once among rock’s greatest revivalist bands. Their bluesy swagger and strutting riffs drew comparisons to Faces and peak period Rolling Stones; at their best, the Black Crowes reminded fans that before indie and before grunge, there was simply rock ‘n’ roll. The last time the Black Crowes recorded an album of new songs in a studio was 2008’s Warpaint; since then they’ve released several live records (including 2009’s Before the Frost … , which pres...

Chris Robinson has detailed two of the scariest concerts in Black Crowes history. The first took place in 1991 when his band performed as part of the Monsters of Rock concert in Moscow, alongside Metallica, Pantera and AC/DC. The show took place as the Soviet Union was dissolving, making for a tense backdrop. As Robinson recalled during an appearance on Club Random with Bill Maher, military presence was everywhere. “They tanked the building,” Robinson remembered, noting that the crowd was estimated at a million people. “Within the morass of people [officials] wanted to form some areas. So how ...
