Counting Crows,, having sold over 20 million records world-wide, make a welcome return to the UK & Ireland in May. The tour will take the band across 12 cities with their fifth studio album, ‘Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings’.

Counting Crows first hit the mainstream with their critically acclaimed debut release, ‘August & Everything After’ in 1993 which went on to sell 7 million copies. Merging from an era of contemporaries including Lenny Kravitz, the band’s influences include Van Morrison, Nirvana and Bob Dylan. Since then they too have influenced other artists including Panic At The Disco, who covered the song, ‘Round Here’. Counting Crow’s DIY and grass roots attitude has kept the band grounded to what’s most important to them; their music and fans.

Hailing from the San Francisco Bay area, Counting Crows consist of Adam Duritz (vocals), David Bryson (guitar), Charles Gillingham (keyboards), Dan Vickrey(guitar), Jim Bogios(drums), and Millard Powers (bass).

Counting Crows have sold more than 20 million albums worldwide, a number that only a handful of artists can boast. Previous albums include Recovering the Satellites (1996); Across A Wire: Live in NY (1998); This Desert Life (1999) and Hard Candy (2002) which featured the band’s Top 10 cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Big Yellow Taxi”. The band also had a number 1 US hit with the song “Accidentally In Love,” which was featured on the Shrek 2 soundtrack.
