After 20+ Years Of Gigging & Recording, Chris Robinson, Longtime Black Crowes' Frontman, Shaped A Fresh Rock Mythology! 180 Gram Double Vinyl!
In 2011, after more than 20 years of intense gigging and recording, Chris Robinson set off to shape something new, a fresh rock mythology, a breathing kaleidoscopic thing stuffed with chooglin' soul, bedrock boogie and shuffling wisdom birthed in intimate clubs and amongst the tall trees of the Golden State and eventually taken nationwide as the Chris Robinson Brotherhood evolved.
What began as an experiment without expectations turned into a 118-show journey for Robinson, Neal Casal, Adam MacDougall, George Sluppick, and Mark Dutton that surprised these seasoned pros as music of unshakeable solidity and exuberant reach poured out of them, a New Cosmic California sound with tendrils reaching to the original Fillmore West, Topanga Canyon and outwards towards far horizons.
In June 2012, following the 118-show journey, The Chris Robinson Brotherhood released their debut album Big Moon Ritual. It is a "roots-o-licious collection of tunes with beautiful guitar tones, inventive in parts, gorgeous solos, and killer vocals all around," praised Guitar Player (June 2012), while Relix similarly raved by describing the album as "a full immersion into Southern psychedelics, nine-minute song swoops, extended grooves and wailing vocals" (June 2012). The fruits of the band's hard-charging January 2012 recording session with producer Thom Monahan are heard not only on Big Moon Ritual but in its companion album The Magic Door also.
This music is unashamedly what were into, says Robinson, who cites Neu!, Melanie, Flatt & Scruggs, Mel Tillis and Morton Subotnick as regulars in their van listening. Its not a psych band because you have a Prince Valiant haircut and wear Beatle boots. Its psych because thats where our heads are. We want to make music that blossoms. We want to make music that sounds cosmic.
