Chris Robinson Brotherhood: Extensive Cali Shows Mar-May

OH LUCKY CALIFORNIA!

Little is currently known about the Chris Robinson Brotherhood outside of a real yen to play the Golden State a LOT and a couple of intriguing graphics at their website. A little birdie with a beard told us last summer that great SoCal musician Jonathan Wilson and fellow Black Crowe Adam MacDougall will be involved. He also said there’s a small pile of new songs he’s been itching to share. We’ll keep you updated as things develop, but at least you can mark your calendars for the launch of this new project as The Black Crowes begin the first phase of their hiatus.

Check out this blast from the past
, a chat with Chris right after the first Crowes hiatus as he began work on New Earth Mud!
