Fresh off the heels of announcing their first album in 15 years, “Happiness Bastards”, legendary rock band The Black Crowes today announced their 2024 headline tour — set to hit 35 cities in North America and Europe this spring in support of their forthcoming studio album.
The “Happiness Bastards” tour will kick off at the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville on April 2, making stops in major markets, including Atlanta, Los Angeles, Seattle, Vancouver, Chicago, New York, and Boston, before ending the North American run in Philadelphia on May 7 at The Met Philadelphia.
The “Happiness Bastards” tour international run will begin May 14 in Manchester, U.K., at the O2 Apollo, making stops in London, Brussels, Amsterdam, Paris, Milan, Berlin, and more before wrapping up the expansive tour on June 9 in Mérida at the Stone & Music festival. Presales for the “Happiness Bastards” tour start on Tuesday, January 23 and tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, January 26 at 10 a.m. local.
“Happiness Bastards” is set for worldwide release on March 15 via the band’s Silver Arrow Records. A salute to their past and a celebration of the present and future, “Happiness Bastards” is The Black Crowes‘ tenth studio album and their first original music in 15 years. Helmed by Grammy Award-winning producer Jay Joyce, the album includes ten new tracks, with a very special feature from Grammy-nominated superstar Lainey Wilson.
Alongside the album announcement, the band unveiled the riff-ripping lead single “Wanting And Waiting”, an exhilarating taste of what’s to come with the signature flair and attitude of one of this generation’s most vital rock bands.
Frontman Chris Robinson said: “Hope everybody is ready to rock & roll with us on the ‘Happiness Bastards’ tour this spring! We’re excited to be playing songs from our new album along with some deeper tracks, juicy covers, and the songs you want to hear!”
