One of Australia’s most celebrated bands, The Black Sorrows, are releasing For Your Love – a single lifted from their forthcoming album, The Quintessential Black Sorrows – out on Friday 24th October.

Says Joe Camilleri, “For Your Love is a love song wrapped in poetry built on poetic images of gold, roses and the keys to the kingdom.  Because that’s just how love feels sometimes.  We cut the song with the band live in the room – no tricks – just trying to get the good groove.  It’s romantic, always feels lovely to sing.  It’s The Sorrows doing what we do best.”

The Quintessential Black Sorrows is a handpicked journey through the soul, grit and timeless genre-defying songwriting fire that has made them one of Australia’s most enduring bands.  Curated by Joe Camilleri, the double album spans decades and celebrates the songwriting partnership of Joe and Nick Smith as well as the musicians who have made the journey.  The collection of songs commemorates the past but more than that it proves The Sorrows are still writing their best chapter.

The Black Sorrows in one form or another, have not stopped recording or performing since Joe formed the band in 1984.  They have toured Europe numerous times playing songs that have become radio staples like Chained to the Wheel, Harley & Rose, Hold On To Me and Never Let Me Go.  There have been multi-platinum albums, collectively sales of over three million records worldwide, ARIA Awards and Nominations, and Hall of Fame honours.
