About The Black Crowes
The Black Crowes emerged from Atlanta in 1989 with a sound that felt like they'd unearthed it from a basement tape vault circa 1972. Their debut album, "Shake Your Money Maker," nailed that Zeppelin-meets-Stones groove immediately, anchored by the irresistible blues swagger of "Hard to Handle" and the softer vulnerability of "She Talks to Angels." Brothers Chris and Rich Robinson traded vocals and guitars through the '90s, building a catalog that proved southern rock didn't need to apologize for its influences—just nail the execution, which they did repeatedly. "Remedy" became their other staple, a hypnotic track that showed they understood dynamics as well as riffs. The band fractured, reunited, and fractured again, but their best albums hold up as genuine artifacts of a moment when classic rock DNA could still produce something that felt fresh.
Their shows are sweaty, loose affairs where the brothers bicker and build momentum through extended jams. The crowd feeds on that chemistry—nobody's checking their phone. It's church music played in a honky tonk.
Known for Hard to Handle, Jealous Again, Remedy, She Talks to Angels, Thorn in My Side
The Black Crowes + New York
The Black Crowes have always owned New York stages, and their April show at Radio City proved why. They opened with the understated "Bedside Manners" and spent the night threading between deep cuts like "Flesh Wound" and "Wanting and Waiting" before closing things out with a cover of "White Light/White Light." The setlist felt like a conversation with longtime fans—no forced greatest hits narrative, just a band working through material that clearly still matters to them.

Live Music in New York
New York's rock scene has always been about something else—post-punk, no wave, indie rock shaped by the city's particular neurosis. Southern rock doesn't belong here in theory, which is probably why The Black Crowes fit. The city's best venues have always made room for outsiders who understand that authenticity isn't regional, it's in the playing.
New York road trip to see The Black Crowes?
Stay in the Upper West Side near Central Park—quieter than Midtown, better restaurants, and close enough to everywhere that matters. Dinner at Balthazar in SoHo if you want classic New York energy, or Gramercy Tavern if you prefer something less scene-y. Spend your afternoon at the Met or catching live music at Blue Note or The Basement—both venues where you'll see the players who influenced Mars's sound. Walk through Washington Square Park, grab a coffee, remember why New York mattered to music in the first place.
