The Black Crowes will mark the 30-year anniversary of their quintuple-platinum debut album, “Shake Your Money Maker,” with a world tour.

Tour dates include an Aug. 1 stop at KeyBank Pavilion in Burgettstown. Tickets are on sale now at ticketmaster.com.

The tour will mark the first time brothers and group founders Chris and Rich Robinson have played together since 2013, when the tour release says, “they vowed never to play or speak together again.”

Rich Robinson has said the split came over financial issues.

Of the reunion, vocalist Chris Robinson says, “I’m thrilled and blessed to be playing with my brother celebrating the music we’ve made and bringing our lives together full circle.”

“First and foremost, I’m really happy to have my brother back in my life,” adds guitarist Rich Robinson. “To be able to play music again together and celebrate the first record we made as kids, is a gift. To have these songs stand up after 30 years is something I could’ve never fathomed.”

The Black Crowes will play “Shake Your Money Maker” in its entirety during the tour, which kicks off June 17 in Austin, Texas.

Sales of the group’s seminal 1990 release were fueled by singles “Jealous Again,” “Twice As Hard,” “She Talks To Angels” and the Otis Redding cover, “Hard To Handle.”

The Black Crowes went on to release eight studio and four live albums.
