Counting Crows
"August" rock group
Counting Crows is an American rock band formed in 1991, known for melancholic, literary songwriting and the distinctive vocal style of frontman Adam Duritz.
Their debut album *August and Everything After* (1993) produced the hit "Mr.
Jones." The name comes from an old British divination rhyme about counting magpies to predict fortune.
