This power trio combine elements of folk and hard rock with the blues rock of bands like Gov’t mule, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin. The band was formed in 2009 in Cork city when lead singer Christy O’Hanlon met the rhythm section of Stephen McGrath ( Bass ) and Gev Barrett (Drums ). The band immediately jelled and went on to perform on the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury 2011. They released their first raw blues rock and roll album in 2012 which was produced by Philip Magee which was lauded by both Classic rock magazine and allmusic.com. In 2015 the band went on to release their first live album entitled Deep South which was voted in the top 5 live albums of 2015 by Classic Rock Blues.
In 2016 Crow Black Chicken opened for ZZ Top at the Marquee in Cork which brought them
face to face with the Texan compatriots whom they often drew so many comparisons to. Always determined to create a sound all of their own the band continues to tour all over Europe and released their 4th studio album Ghost Dance in 2025.
"These guys do the nasty blues like the devil hisself was hurting and rock like they'll skate come judgement day'
Ray Wylie Hubbard
"CBC could save rock and roll"
Alvin Youngblood Hart
"Maybe it's the luck of the Irish or maybe it's these boys' immense talent, but they've managed to find a sound that's all their own. In a world of cliché blues songs, these lads take what they want and leave the rest far behind."
