With Gregg Allman recently taking ill, two major sets on this weekend’s Peach Music Festival schedule were thrown up in the air: Allman’s band performance and his collaboration with The String Cheese Incident. Today we have information about the latter, as Peach has announced plans for The Allman Brothers Family Incident.
The newly-announced set will see the members of SCI collaborate with a number of musicians from the Allman Brothers Band family, including Butch Trucks, Jaimoe, Oteil Burbridge, Marc Quinones, Scott Sharrard, and Bruce Katz. Considering how much time SCI has been spending on the ABB catalog, it will be nice to hear them performing that music with the musicians that helped to create it. The set should also serve as a moving tribute to Allman while he is recovering.
It still remains unclear who will replace Gregg Allman in the headlining slot. We’ll be sure to update once The Peach Music Festival has made that announcement.
