The Black Crowes

The Black Crowes is an American blues-oriented rock band that came together in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1984. The two brothers,  Chris Robinson and Rich Robinson, founded the group during their time at Walton High School starting the band with the name Mr. Crowe’s Garden. The band got a deal to do a demo for A&M Records in 1987, thanks to their manager at the time, Dave Macias. The first demo by the band was done in Carrboro, North Carolina, featuring Jeff Sullivan on drums. Over time the recordings included Steve Gorman, who later joined the band officially. The lineup of the band changed slightly by 1988, but they continued playing at different spots in New York City and they caught the attention of George Drakoulias in 1989, who signed them up with Def American. After the signing they changed their name officially to The Black Crowes.

Even though they had an altercation with Miller Beer in 1991, the band did not miss a moment, launching their own tour and joining the Monsters of Rock in Europe, and they got to share stages with legends like Metallica, Jimmy Page, Tom Petty, Lenny Kravitz, and AC/DC. 

But in 2006 they went through some changes, with Eddie Harsch and Marc Ford leaving the band and then replaced by Rob Clores and Paul Stacey. Clores was later replaced by Adam MacDougall in 2007. Meanwhile, Paul Stacey's role was also temporary because Luther Dickinson took over guitar duties. The band then released Warpaint in 2008, with Paul Stacey staying as the producer. In 2015, Rich Robinson announced the band’s final breakup after their album Croweology; the album was bittersweet for the fans as it was honored with a farewell tour following the band’s long breakup.

After the breakup, members pursued other projects. Chris Robinson formed the Chris Robinson Brotherhood and As the Crow Flies, while Rich Robinson focused on his solo career and The Magpie Salute. Steve Gorman continued with Trigger Hippy and wrote a memoir. This year, they have released the album Happiness Bastards.
