THE BLACK CROWES CONFIRM SECOND SYDNEY SHOW FOR APRIL 8 TO MEET DEMAND

Live Nation has today announced that genre-defying rock legends THE BLACK CROWES have added a second Sydney show at Enmore Theatre on Wednesday 8 April, due to overwhelming demand.

This new date expands their national headline tour, bringing their electrifying, soulful, swagger-fueled rock & roll to audiences across Australia this April – the first country the band will play live following the release of highly anticipated new album, A Pound of Feathers.

The tour will commence at The Forum, Melbourne on Thursday 2 and Friday 3 April, followed by Fortitude Music Hall in Brisbane on Monday 6 April, and concluding in Sydney at Enmore Theatre on Wednesday 8 and Thursday 9 April.

Tickets for this new Sydney show go on sale tomorrow, Tuesday 24 March, at 11am (local).

One of rock & roll’s most iconic and unapologetic bands, The Black Crowes return to Australia after their massive global reunion tour. Since reforming in 2019, the Robinson Brothers have reignited the fire that made them one of the most electrifying live acts on the planet—playing more than 150 shows across 20 countries.

Their last record Happiness Bastards earned a GRAMMY nomination for Best Rock Album and a 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nod, underscoring the band’s continued relevance and influence. Brand new, tenth studio album A Pound of Feathers was recorded in Nashville with producer Jay Joyce in just 10 days, merging their classic Southern rock roots with new energy, showcasing their musical evolution.

On this tour, fans can expect timeless hits including Remedy, She Talks to Angels, and Hard to Handle, alongside material from these recent albums, performed with the raw energy, soul, and swagger that define The Black Crowes.

Australian rock 4-piece The Southern River Band is special guest across all dates, joining the tour fresh from a run of UK and European dates. Their unshakeable attitude, blistering live energy, and commitment to doing things their way has earned them a devoted following across Australia and beyond. Behind the humour, the Herculean mullet, and the sweat-drenched antics lies a seriously formidable unit: Cal Kramer (vocals/guitar), Pat Smith (bass), Dan Carroll (guitar), Tyler Michie (drums). The Southern River Band take their craft seriously — and their live show must be seen to be believed.

ABOUT THE BLACK CROWES:

Founded by brothers Chris and Rich Robinson, The Black Crowes make music for the mavericks, playing rock ‘n’ roll that’s hip-swinging and heavy, dirty and debonaire, bluesy and ballsy, ecstatic and electrifying, and soulful and soaring. They don’t fall in line, and they never cared to either. Instead, they’re right at home with the outsiders, the drifters, the lost souls, the hustlers, and the hellraisers who inhabit timeless tunes like “She Talks To Angels,” “Hard To Handle,” “Wiser Time,” “Twice As Hard,” and “Black Moon Creeping.” No matter where culture went, the multiplatinum GRAMMY® Award-nominated group fearlessly charted their own course, taking flight with the 5x-Platinum Shake Your Money Maker and never coming back down. Their path twisted and turned from seminal records a la the 2x-Platinum Billboard 200 #1 LP The Southern Harmony And Musical Companion and Gold-certified follow-up Amorica to a once-in-a-lifetime jaunt with Jimmy Page and accompanying Gold-certified live record: Live at the Greek. The band’s lore expanded with the chart-shaking Warpaint and Before the Frost…Until the Freeze. Another generation fell under their spell as they launched their biggest headline tour yet to celebrate Shake Your Money Maker’s 30th birthday. They lit up the next chapter with 2024’s Happiness Bastards—which garnered a 2025 GRAMMY® Award nod for Best Rock Album. Between widespread critical praise, they even picked up a 2025 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame® nomination. Rather than rest on their laurels, Chris and Rich will embark on their Southern Hospitality Tour this summer, following the release of their tenth full-length offering, A Pound of Feathers, out March 13. Promising uncompromising, urgent, and undeniable rock ‘n’ roll, it’s the sound of unrepentant creative spirits in harmony. It’s the sound of The Black Crowes.
