The Black Crowes Announce New Album ‘Happiness Bastards,’ Share Lead Single ‘Wanting And Waiting’

The Black Crowes have announced that their new album, Happiness Bastards, will be released on CD and LP on March 15.

The legendary rock band also shared the album’s lead single, “Wanting And Waiting.”

“Wanting And Waiting” marks the first music material from the Black Crowes since Robinson brothers Chris and Rich reunited onstage in 2019.

Happiness Bastards, which is the band’s first album since 2010, was produced by Grammy Award-winning Jay Joyce.

Country star Lainey Wilson has a guest appearance on the album.

“It is our love letter to rock’n’roll,” according to frontman Chris Robertson. “Rich and I are always writing and creating music; that has never stopped for us, and it is always where we find harmony together. This record represents that.”

“This album is a continuation of our story as a band,” said Rich Robinson. “Our years of experience writing and making music and touring the world are represented in this record, and we were brilliantly guided by one of the best producers in the business, Jay Joyce. I am incredibly proud of what we put together.”
