The Black Crowes performed at the UPMC Events Center on Tuesday, October 29th, as they continued their “Happiness Bastards” Tour. Tash Neal opened up the night with his explosive guitar and vocals. Neal is well known for having had performances with musicians, Lenny Kravitz and Slash.
This past March, The Black Crowes released a new album, the first one they’ve released in 15 years. The record is their 10th studio album and includes the band’s first-ever collaboration with upcoming country singer, Lainey Wilson. The Black Crowes grew to fame around the mid-90s with hits, “Hard to Handle,” “She Talks to Angels,” and “Twice as Hard.” The band recently reunited again in 2019, following a 2015 split. The Black Crowes also recently toured with Aerosmith, until lead singer Steven Tyler announced his retirement this past August.
