4 Days in Sing Sing is the twelfth studio album by Australian rock band The Black Sorrows. The album was recorded in four days in Sing Sing Studios in Melbourne, where the Black Sorrows recorded their albums Hold On to Me and Harley & Rose and released as a CD/DVD package in September 2009.

Lead singer Joe Camilleri said; “This all started because I was asked to document the past for a live DVD. I love and embrace my past, but I know and believe that The Black Sorrows will never be a heritage act because for us there’s no finish line. The heart and soul of The Sorrows still beats loud and clear.” The plan was to recorded each track in no more than three takes to keep the music 'fresh' and 'not overwork it'. The DVD documents the recording of the album and includes interview footage of the band, sneak peaks behind the scenes and diary notes of the process by Camilleri.
