The Black Crowes have officially announced their return to the road with a headlining North American tour set to begin this September.
The news comes in the wake of Aerosmith’s decision to cancel their farewell tour due to frontman Steven Tyler’s larynx injury. The Black Crowes were originally scheduled to support Aerosmith on that tour, but with those plans now scrapped, the band is moving forward with their own tour, much to the delight of their fans.
In a statement shared on social media, The Black Crowes explained: “Due to the cancellation of the Aerosmith Tour, we also had to move a few of the previously announced show dates and unfortunately have to cancel the Tucson, Wanatchee, and Verona shows. Original tickets for all the rescheduled dates will be honored at the new shows, and all ticketholders will receive an email directly from their point of purchase with more information.”

The upcoming tour will span over three months, kicking off on Sept. 27 in Northfield, OH, and concluding in December.
Happiness Bastards marks the first new studio record from singer Chris Robinson and guitarist Rich Robinson in 15 years. The album follows the siblings’ reunion in 2019, where they performed over 150 shows across 20 countries to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their breakthrough 1990 album Shake Your Money Maker.
In a statement upon the album’s release in March, Chris Robinson said, “Happiness Bastards is our love letter to rock ‘n’ roll. Rich and I are always writing and creating music; that has never stopped for us, and it is always where we find harmony together. This record represents that.”
Brother Rich Robinson added, “This album is a continuation of our story as a band. Our years of experience writing and making music and touring the world are represented in this record, and we were brilliantly guided by one of the best producers in the business, Jay Joyce. I am incredibly proud of what we put together.”
For fans eager to see The Black Crowes live, pre-sale tickets for the tour go on sale today, Aug. 21, with general tickets available on Friday, Aug. 23.
