Officially joining the KLOS family, Matt Pinfield has kicked off his New & Approved new rock show with frontman of The Black Crowes Chris Robinson. Robinson spent some time catching up on life amid the pandemic which has rendered much more family time for the Georgia native.

Now reflecting back on the early and beginning stages of the Crowes budding talents, formerly known as Mr. Crowes Garden, Robinson shares moments of old recording sessions and the creativity and passion that came from the band’s earliest recordings. The “Hard To Handle” musician spoke on the 30th Anniversary of ‘Shake Your Money Maker’ which features not only a new single offering from the band with the song “Charming Mess” but he also shares that never before heard studio recording sessions and demos are also included in the reissue.

Robinson also goes on to speak with Pinfield on Black Crowes’ early influences, past touring experiences, what it felt like getting back on stage before the pandemic impacted live shows, and much more.
