The Black Crowes’ Chris and Rich Robinson will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, Shake Your Money Maker, with a 2020 tour that will include a performance at the Walmart AMP on Wednesday, June 24, 2020.

The tour will mark the band’s first live shows since 2013.

Tickets are on sale now, and prices start at $40 plus applicable fees. Tickets can be purchased by calling 479-443-5600 or by visiting www.amptickets.com. VIP packages are also available for this show.

In-person purchases can be made only at the Walton Arts Center box office in Fayetteville from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Monday through Friday and noon until 4 p.m. on Saturday. Tickets will be available for purchase via the WAC Tickets app on Friday, Nov. 22. All tickets purchased for the 2020 Walmart AMP season will not be delivered until March 2020. Tickets will be delivered via the delivery method selected when the order was placed.

Released in early 1990, Shake Your Money Maker peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200, and is the band’s best selling album, having sold over 5 million copies.

Two of the album’s singles – “Hard to Handle” and “She Talks to Angels” – reached No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Three other songs – “Jealous Again”, “Twice As Hard” and “Seeing Things” – were also charting singles in the U.S.

After a hiatus from 2002-2005, the band regrouped and toured for several years. After touring in 2013, the band announced another breakup in 2015 when the Robinson brothers had a money dispute and vowed to never speak again.

The two have apparently buried the hatchet.

“I’m thrilled and blessed to be playing with my brother, celebrating the music we’ve made and bringing our lives together full circle,” said Chris.

Rich agreed.

“First and foremost, I’m really happy to have my brother back in my life,” he said. “To be able to play music again together and celebrate the first record we made as kids, is a gift. To have these songs stand up after 30 years is something I could’ve never fathomed.”
