Written by Jon Stickler
Former The Black Crowes vocalist Chris Robinson will hit the road for a US tour under the As The Crow Flies moniker this spring.
The Chris Robinson Brotherhood frontman will perform songs from The Crowes’ catalogue in April and May, accompanied by his backing band comprising former The Black Crowes guitarist Audley Freed and bassist Andy Hess, plus Robinson's current band mates Tony Leone on drums and Adam MacDougall on keyboards, along with rising guitarist Marcus King. In a statement about the tour, Robinson said:
"Spring will be sprung and the songs will be sung. This crow will fly high with old friends and new. Bring on, bring on! I can’t wait to hit the stage with some rock 'n' roll for the ages. It's been five years since I’ve had the privilege of singing these songs and with Audley Freed, Marcus King, Andy Hess, Adam McDougall and Tony Leone all onboard, a soulful rockin' funky good time is guaranteed!"
Tickets go on general sale at 10am on January 12. The Chris Robinson Band, meanwhile, will tour the United States and Europe during January, February and March.
