Fifteen years after their last original release, The Black Crowes return with Happiness Bastards—a raw, no-frills rock & roll record fuelled by years of tension, reunion, and rediscovery. Stripped-down and electrified, it's a defiant statement from a band that helped define modern rhythm and blues. Reunited since 2019 and reinvigorated by over 150 shows across the globe, the Robinson Brothers and bassist Sven Pipien entered the studio with producer Jay Joyce in 2023 to create an album that channels their roots, grit, and unfiltered energy—just when rock needed it most.
