No, it's not that band that painted paradise with a parking lot. Nor is it the band that sounds kinda like the White Stripes. It's recent inductee into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame, Black Crowes. If you don't catch the multi-platinum selling band on tour by 2011, then you'll be sure to miss it, since it will be going on hiatus that year.
The "Psychedelic Soul" band has received titles such as "The Best New American Band" from Rolling Stone and after their show you'll be talking about them too.
The 20-year-old band will be releasing a new album in August titled Crowedom, where it will be putting together more than 20 songs that span over the band's 20 years. The album will consist of acoustic collaborations with other artists, and you can expect to hear some of these acoustic renditions at the final U.S. tour before the Black Crowes' indefinite break.
