On Wednesday, March 7th, the music of the Allman Brothers Band will be celebrated in full by the “Friends of the Brothers”, featuring members of the Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, and Jaimoe bands as well as ABB biographer Alan Paul. Opening for the “Friends of the Brothers” will be DJ Williams’ Shots Fired, featuring members of Karl Denson’s Tiny Universe, Slightly Stoopid, and the Greyboy AllStars.
“Friends of the Brothers” originally started as a one-off show in March of 2017 as a tribute to Butch Trucks following his unexpected death in January. “I wanted to put together a tribute and thought of my dream lineup: Peter Levin (Gregg Allman), Andy Aledort (Dickey Betts) and Junior Mack (Jaimoe’s Jasssz Band). When they all said yes, we played a glorious night of music,” explained Alan Paul, author of the definitive Allman Brothers band biography One Way Out. “When Gregg died,” he explained before their second performance in October, “we all knew we had to get the band together again to honor our friends and the music we love so much.”
Tickets for the Wednesday night show are currently available here.
