For the first time in their 18-year career, THE BLACK CROWES will perform an album of theirs in it's entirety. On a special run of “One Night Only” shows beginning March 2nd and wrapping March 20th, fans will experience Warpaint - the group’s first album of all new studio material in seven years, due out March 4th - in its entirety onstage, after which the band will perform songs from their catalog and selected surprises.

A listing of these seven one-time-only tour dates is below, with the on-sale info. In the midst of this trek, the band will headline Stubbs March 15th at SXSW in Austin.

The Black Crowes launch their overseas tour March 24th when they headline the East Coast Blues & Roots Festival in Australia. They’ll continue their Down Under trek--their first since 1991 - through April 5th, and conclude with exclusive performances in London, UK at Brixton Academy April 9th and The Amsterdam Music Hall April 11th. A major market multiple night US tour will begin in May, with cities and venues to be announced in the near future.

Warpaint marks the recording debut of two new band members - second guitarist Luther Dickinson, of North Mississippi Allstars, and keyboardist Adam MacDougall - who join Chris and Rich and drummer Steve Gorman and bassist Sven Pipien. The album - which is being independently released on the band’s own newly-formed Silver Arrow Records, distributed through Megaforce/Sony Red BMG - builds compellingly on the band’s trademark adventurous brew of rock, blues, country, soul and gospel.

Produced and mixed by Paul Stacey at Allaire Studios, Woodstock, NY, the album features 11 songs, all of which were written by Chris and Rich Robinson, except 'God’s Got It' by the Reverend Charlie Jackson. 'Goodbye Daughters Of The Revolution' is set as the album’s first single and video; the song will arrive at radio today, Monday, January 7th.
