The Black Crowes

The Black Crowes are a Southern rock revival band established in the very late eighties, although their work did not begin until 1990. They were a major part of the album rock revival of the nineties as people sought a return to singer-songwriters, artists who actually wrote, sang, and performed their own music as well as provided entire albums of quality, music provided by actual instruments rather than just one or two songs of synth-based songs. The Crowes had several hit singles and bestselling albums. Besides being a Southern rock band, they also had some influence from the blues and folk.
