Last night, Les Brers, a group made up of former Allman Brothers Band members and extended family led by Butch Trucks, played a rocking show at Brooklyn Bowl. The band – which features Jaimoe, Oteil Burbridge, Marc Quiñones and more – formed after the Allman’s official retirement shows last year, and has only performed a handful of times together, making last night’s performance even that much more special.
Gregg Allman Band guitarist Scott Sharrard, also made an appearance at the show and will head his own Allman’s inspired show next week at NYC’s Marlin Room with Jackie Greene, Scott Metzger, Peter Levin, and more. The show is a benefit show for the 20th anniversary for the Songs of Love Foundation. Get more info here.
