The Black Crowes | A Pound of Feathers
Fresh off the GRAMMY-nominated success of Happiness Bastards (2024), Chris and Rich Robinson wasted no time getting back to work - In early 2025, the brothers returned to Nashville to reunite with producer Jay Joyce and recapture the spark that powered their last record - This is the result.
The Black Crowes emerged in the early 1990s as one of the most compelling rock bands of their generation, channeling classic blues, soul, and Southern rock into a raw, unpolished sound that felt both timeless and urgent. With swaggering grooves, gospel-tinged harmonies, and a deep reverence for rock history, the band quickly earned a reputation as a powerful live act and a defining voice of their era. After years marked by hiatuses, reunions, and reflection, The Black Crowes re-emerged with renewed focus and intent on their 2024 comeback album, 'Happiness Bastards'. Not a simple nostalgic exercise, but a forward-looking statement that reconnects the band with its core identity. The record captured the grit and looseness, that long defined their music, while sounding grounded in the present rather than the past.
