The Black Crowes Return

[Esau.]

http://www.jambands.com/news/2013/03/25/the-black-crowes-return

The Black Crowes kicked off their reunion tour last night at Manchester, England’s Manchester Academy. It was the group’s first live performance since the summer of 2011. The show introduced the Crowes’ new lineup, which includes frontman Chris Robinson, guitarist Rich Robinson, drummer Steve Gorman, bassist Sven Pipien, keyboardist Adam MacDougall and new guitarist Jackie Greene.

Last night’s show featured a mix of originals recorded throughout the band’s 20-plus year career as well as a range of covers. However, the band focused a little more heavily on their early period than during their final pre-hiatus shows. In addition, the Black Crowers introduced new covers of Traffic’s “Medicated Goo†and Joe South’s “Hush†(the latter song is bets known for Deep Purple’s cover of the tune). Greene also showed off his musical prowess by switching to mandolin at several points during the show and providing backup vocals. The show came to a close with a choice cover of Little Feat’s “Willin’.â€

The Black Crowes will perform at Birmingham, England’s 02 Academy this evening.

NYC tickets are sold out - and wow Jackie Green in the mix is gonna be a treat... tickets I must procure!

[Big Wooly Mammoth]

i just picked up tix for June at La Cigale. Tiny venue (saw Ryan Adams there last year). And I had forgotten that Jackie Greene was in the band now!

[NewRider]

Toronto show please.

[Northern Wish]

I've got tickets to a couple of upcoming show and can't wait. Great set, but I saw last nights and it doesn't change it up as much as they used to....

[edger]

Hmmm guess that means they'll probably play the Friday for Vibes? I wonder if Tedeshi Trucks will play Sunday for vibes? I doubt both of them and Phil would all be on the Friday? Maybe depending on who else gets announced.

Wonder if they'll tour in the fall

[c-towns]

Rich Robinson's website says he is at Vibes on the 25th and 26th whatever that means. Hopefully his band and Chris Robinson Brotherhood all play at vibes, how awesome is that rumor sounding? Not sure about Tedeshi/Trucks, I love DT but for some reason this band doesn't do it for me.
