Counting Crows are a global phenomenon with a host of multiple platinum albums and Top 10 chart placings worldwide. Counting Crows have been a huge presence in the music world; from initial hit single “Mr. Jones” to 2005’s “Accidentally In Love” from the Shrek 2 soundtrack which saw the Californian band perform at the Academy Awards.
New album ‘Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings’ released in the UK on March 24th, saw the band split their musical personality with the rock Saturday Nights produced by Gil Norton (of Pixies and Foo Fighters fame) whilst the more acoustic Sunday Mornings portion sees Brian Deck (Modest Mouse, Iron and Wine) at the board.
