The Black Crowes’ tour is billed as “The Black Crowes Present: Shake Your Money Maker.” Released in 1990, “Shake Your Money Maker” was the band’s debut album. It moved over 5 million copies, spawning hits such as a cover of Otis Redding’s “Hard to Handle,” “She Talks to Angels” and “Jealous Again.” The Crowes will perform that record in its entirety, plus other hits from their long career. The show starts at 6:30 p.m. In other words, be ready for a lengthy evening filled with plenty of jamming.

Indie-rock band Lord Huron formed about a decade ago. Filled with cinematic overtones, the group’s music has been used frequently in movies and on TV. “Long Lost,” the band’s fourth and newest album, came out in 2021. The Boise show will start at 7 p.m.

Outlaw Field has 10 concerts lined up this summer. Here’s the rest of the schedule: Ween on June 28, The Avett Brothers on July 12, Khruangbin on July 13, Rainbow Kitten Surprise on July 15, Whiskey Myers, Shane Smith & The Saints and 49 Winchester on Aug. 7, The Head and the Heart on Aug. 9, Bonnie Raitt with Mavis Staples on Aug. 14, and Modest Mouse on Aug. 29.
