The band, which has toured intermittently for most of 2007, will kick off a dedicated stretch of roadwork Aug. 3 in Bethlehem, PA. The outing will hit more than 45 cities through late October, and includes a few festival appearances, the bulk of which are headlining gigs. All dates are shown below.

The Crowes completed a major tour last fall, weathering the departure of two long-time members. Keyboardist Eddie Hawrysch, who had been a member since 1992, was "released from the band due to personal issues," according to a press release issued last August. Mere days later, guitarist Marc Ford--also a Black Crowe since 1992--quit the band via a fax, according to the group's website. The two departed members were replaced by guitarist Paul Stacey and keyboardist Rob Clores.

A dual CD/DVD entitled "Brothers of a Feather," featuring video shot during founding Crowes members Chris and Rich Robinson's series of acoustic performances last fall, was released in July. The DVD's material was culled from the pair's three-night run at The Roxy in Los Angeles.
