Mr. Jones. The band is formed by singer Adam Duritz (previously of The Himalayans and Sordid Humor) and guitarist David Bryson (Local producer and former member of the band Mr. Dog) in San Francisco, California in 1990.
Counting Crows originally performed as an acoustic duo, playing gigs in and around Berkeley and San Francisco. For the first album, Adam and David added bassist Matt Malley, the multiinstrumental Charlie Gillingham, and Drummer Steve Bowman. David Immergluck was the second guitarist on the first album, but did not officially join the band until 1999. Guitarist Dan Vickery was added just as the band set out on their first tour.Counting Crows, with their intimate and melancholy approach, achieved a large fan base among Generation X alternative rock fans who were looking for something different from the raging guitars of the Seattle music scene.
The band’s most recent success included a … 1 hit with the song
Accidentally In Love, which was featured on the Shrek 2 soundtrack (which has sold over 1,000,000 copies), as well as nominations last year for a Grammy Award, a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award for the track. To date the band has sold over 20 million CDs worldwide.

narcoleptic953 Underwater Sunshine is the best thing they've done since Hard Candy. Here's my review: http://www.rockfreaks.net/albums/4843

KongKurs However, they did choose said songs.. ;). I haven't listened to the new album enough times, to be able to thoroughly judge whether they pick right or not.. Yet again, it is highly appriciative that the covers they have chosen are not those of "aclaimed" artist, but mostly unknown to the wider audience.

Siouxlex Never thought that CC would record for Daytrotter. Great session guys. For those not familiar with daytrotter check them out at www.daytrotter.com

hsxeric To everyone calling the new album "shit", you do know that it's a covers record, right? So don't be so quick to declare that you're not a fan anymore. CC didn't write these songs, so if you don't like them, don't blame the band.
