THE BLACK CROWES ANNOUNCE RELEASE OF NEW CD AND GIVE FANS A FREE SECOND ALBUM…

‘BEFORE THE FROST…UNTIL THE FREEZE’ DUE IN STORES SEPTEMBER 01, 2009

The innovative technique of inviting fans into the studio as part of the process during recording is a rare experience. ‘Before the Frost…’ features eleven new and previously unreleased Black Crowes songs including Good Morning Captain, I Ain’t Hiding, Been a Long Time (Waiting on Love), and other original songs that will serve to spotlight the bands ability to make emotional connections through their music. The free album ‘…Until The Freeze’ is a nine-song collection featuring eight new original Black Crowes songs plus a cover version of the Stephen Stills classic So Many Times. A limited edition vinyl release of ‘Before The Frost…Until The Freeze’, featuring all 20 tracks, will also be available on September 1, 2009.

As The Black Crowes approach the upcoming 20th anniversary of their release of one of rock’s most influential records, Shake Your Money Maker, which produced such hits as Jealous Again, She Talks To Angels and Hard to Handle, they are time and again hailed as one of Rock and Roll’s best live acts.

Chris Robinson conceived the concept of ‘Before the Frost…Until The Freeze’. “I think we fulfilled a musical commitment to continue on the golden road of artistic independence. Approaching 20 years into our careers, we still are ambitious enough to push ourselves to create something unique that we have never done before.”
