During a March 16 appearance on SiriusXM's "Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk", THE BLACK CROWES guitarist Rich Robinson discussed his band's insistence on releasing full-length albums despite the changing music landscape.
He emphasized that their primary focus is on creating art through music, rather than solely following current trends.
According to Robinson, playing live shows is essential for the band, as it allows them to connect with fans and experience music together in a unique way.
When asked about modern listeners' preference for singles over albums, Robinson explained that THE BLACK CROWES still value the sequencing and curation of an entire album.
He believes this approach allows for a more immersive listening experience and highlights the importance of creative forces behind music.
The band has recently released their latest studio album, "A Pound Of Feathers", on March 13 via Silver Arrow Records.
This 11-song set was recorded over a 10-day period in Nashville with Grammy-winning producer Jay Joyce.
