The Black Crowes Announce UK And US Shows And Live Album

American deep south rockers The Black Crowes have delivered their fans one super-awesome Christmas present – they’re coming out of hiatus to release a live album and do a string of shows across the UK and North America next year.

Underneath a banner saying “Happy Holidays!” – the band posted details of their 2013 tour on their website, which will begin in the UK in late March with dates in Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and London. They’ll then head across America, beginning in New York at the start of April and finishing up in New Orleans in early May.

Fans who are unable to catch the band on those dates can still get a taste of the live experience via the new live album Wiser for the Time, which, according to Ultimate Classic Rock, is set to be released on March 19.

The album was recorded over their sold-out five-night stand in New York in 2010 – and will be available as a 2CD set, digital download and four-album vinyl set. The tracklisting contains 26 songs – of which 15 are acoustic, and 11 are with a full band.
