"It's an honor to create the poster for The Black Crowes' Shake Your Money Maker tour! This art was inspired by many of the songs off of Shake Your Money Maker, but it particular "Struttin' Blues" and the lyrics:
"Out there, breeze is finally blowing, no telling when the train pulls in"
I think this song is relevant right now for a number of reasons -- not only are the Crowes back, but it's also a reunion of fans and live music after a very difficult year. The train's boxcars are textured from the weather, but they're still solid and the lights are still on. The cities are hand-painted onto boxcars, like badges of honor that tell the story of the Shake Your Money Maker tour and where the caboose had been.
If you look closely, you'll also notice candles...30 to be exact. Not only are they a reference to "Hard to Handle", but they also commemorate the 30th anniversary of the iconic album that you're about to hear!
