The Black Sorrows are an acclaimed Australian blues and roots band formed in Melbourne in 1984 by singer and multi-instrumentalist **Joe Camilleri**. Originally starting as a loose collective, the group evolved into a long-running project known for its fluid lineup and rich blend of musical styles, including blues, soul, R\&B, rock, reggae, and country influences. They achieved major commercial success in the late 1980s and early 1990s with hits such as *“Chained to the Wheel,” “Harley and Rose,”* and *“Never Let Me Go,”* becoming one of Australia’s most successful and enduring live bands. Over decades, The Black Sorrows have released more than 20 albums and remain a staple of the Australian touring circuit, known for their energetic live performances and genre-spanning sound rooted in American-influenced roots music.
