Black Crowes Reunite For ‘Shake Your Money Maker 2020 World Tour’



The Black Crowes’ Chris and Rich Robinson will mark the 30th anniversary of the band’s quintuple platinum debut album Shake Your Money Maker with a world tour that kicks off June 17 in Austin and continues through September at the Forum near Los Angeles.

Tickets and VIP packages are on sale now.
To celebrate the announcement, the band will play two intimate shows – at the Bowery Ballroom tonight as well as The Troubadour in Los Angeles Nov. 13.
Chris Robinson says of reuniting, “I’m thrilled & blessed to be playing with my brother celebrating the music we’ve made & bringing our lives together full circle. Long live Rock n’ Roll & The Black Crowes!” 
Rich Robinson adds, “First and foremost, I’m really happy to have my brother back in my life. To be able to play music again together and celebrate the first record we made as kids, is a gift. To have these songs stand up after 30 years is something I could’ve never fathomed.”
The last Black Crowes tour dates were in 2013, when the ever-volatile Robinson brothers vowed to never perform again, with multi-night runs at venues including the Riviera Theatre in Chicago, Terminal 5 in New York, State Theatre in Maine, and the Civic Theatre in New Orleans.
The tour, produced by Live Nation, will see the band playing the Shake Your Money Maker in its entirety “plus all the hits,” according to the announcement. The tour is called a “World Tour” which suggests international legs will be added.  
The news follows a few other high-profile reunion announcements in recent weeks, with Rage Against the Machine set to play Coachella and at least a few other dates, and My Chemical Romance announcing a surprise Los Angeles show that sold out in minutes as well as some Australian dates. Also, 90s hitmakers Hootie & The Blowfish recently had a monster tour, its first in more than a decade, that grossed more than $40 million.
