This week on the Rockonteurs podcast we welcome Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz to the show. Counting Crows have sold over 20 million albums since they formed in the early 90s. Their debut ‘August and Everything After’ was a global smash and included the timeless classic ‘Mr Jones’. In this episode Adam talks about his early influences, his friendship with Kurt Cobain, the struggles of such a meteoric rise, and the wonderful new album ‘Butter Miracle, The Complete Sweets!’ - which is out now.
The band return to the UK in October for a string of arena shows. Find out more here: https://www.countingcrows.com/
