The Black Crowes are reuniting for a massive tour next year, founding brothers Chris and Rich Robinson announced today.

The tour, which kicks off in June and finishes with a Sept. 19 date at the Forum, will celebrate the 30-year anniversary of their debut album, “Shake Your Money Maker.” The album will be performed in its entirety, along with other hits from the band’s eight-album catalog.

The Black Crowes haven’t played live since 2013, when the squabbling siblings broke up and vowed never to perform together or speak to each other again.

In a press release announcing the reunion, Chris Robinson says: “I’m thrilled & blessed to be playing with my brother celebrating the music we’ve made and bringing our lives together full circle. Long live rock ’n’ roll and the Black Crowes!”

Adds Rich Robinson: “First and foremost, I’m really happy to have my brother back in my life. 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.”
