Thirty years ago, The Black Crowes, led by brothers Chris and Rich Robinson, released their debut album Shake Your Money Maker. The album was, as Rolling Stone described, “a guitar-party cracker that marries Southern R&B crunch and Anglo cock-strutting attitude.” The album went double platinum in its first year. Needless to say, the quick rise to stardom coupled with a zero fucks attitude led to complete chaos. The Melody Maker crowned them “The most Rock n’ Roll Rock n’ Roll Band in the world.” Within their first years, The Black Crowes had toured with rock legends AC/DC, Robert Plant and Aerosmith and their first Rolling Stone cover story. The have done epic sold out tours and prolifically released eight studio albums, four live albums and selling over 35 million records. The two things that make and break the band has always been the dueling rockstar brothers. Chris and Rich wrote several hit songs all before the age of 23, while infamously butting heads their entire career. The band called it quits in 2013 with each brother vowing to never play or speak again. February 2020 marks the official 30th anniversary of Shake Your Money Maker. In November 2019 radio legend Howard Stern, shocked fans and journalists alike by announcing the reunion of Chris and Rich, who began to tour as The Black Crowes once again.
