In a new interview with the JJO Discover New Music Podcast, THE BLACK CROWES guitarist Rich Robinson discussed the band's latest studio album, "A Pound Of Feathers", which came out on March 13 via Silver Arrow Records.

The 11-song set was recorded over a 10-day period in Nashville with Grammy-winning producer Jay Joyce, and with only Cully Symington, the band's drummer since 2023, joining Rich and his brother, THE BLACK CROWES singer Chris Robinson, in the studio.

When asked how it feels to have released THE BLACK CROWES' tenth studio album, Rich replied: "It's like an old worn, beat-up pickup truck.

[Laughs] But maybe it got a new engine.

I don't know.

There's a lot of dings and rust or whatever, but it's still functioning.

No, it feels great." Rich continued to discuss the band's approach to creating music, stating: "Chris and I have always only made the records that we wanna make… We probably shot ourselves in the foot.

We probably could have been a much bigger band if we had listened to people and tried to do the things that people do.

But we are in it because we love music and we love the process and we love being in a band, playing and we love being in the studio and making records and writing new songs.

And so it's pretty amazing to sit back and look at ten records." THE BLACK CROWES will be touring extensively throughout 2026 with dates announced for Australia and Japan in April before kicking off a North American tour on May 17 in Austin, Texas.

The band's lineup consists of the Robinson brothers alongside Symington, keyboardist Erik Deutsch, and guitarist Nico Bereciartua.

Longtime bassist Sven Pipien is sitting out the tour and will be replaced by Mark "Muddy" Dutton of BURNING TREE.
