The Black Crowes est un groupe de rock américain fondé en 1989 à Atlanta, en Georgie.
Leur rock sudiste est très fortement influencé par des pionniers tels que The Allman Brothers Band et Lynyrd Skynyrd, mais aussi largement ancré dans la musique des Faces, de groupes des années 1960-1970 tels que les Rolling Stones (période Mick Taylor) ou bien encore Led Zeppelin.

Most songs were recorded live with the band members playing together in one room,[5] and microphones set up to capture the overall sound rather than that of individual instruments.
