The Quintessential Black Sorrows is a handpicked journey through the soul, grit and timeless genre- defying songwriting that has made The Black Sorrows one of Australia’s most enduring bands.
Curated by Joe Camilleri, this double album spans decades - from platinum hits like Harley and Rose, Chained to the Wheel and Never Let Me Go to more recent gems like Livin’ Like Kings and City of Soul. The double album celebrates the cinematic songwriting partnership of Joe Camilleri and Nick Smith and the musicians who have been part of the journey.
The Quintessential Black Sorrows celebrates the past but more than that it proves The Sorrows are still writing their best chapter.
