Derek Trucks, Oteil Burbridge, & Marc Quiñones Honor Allman Brothers Band With Stripped-Down “Midnight Rider” Cover

With the help of producer Tony Succar, Allman Brothers Band percussionist Marc Quiñones paid tribute to his former band and its late leader Gregg Allman with a touching rendition of “Midnight Rider”. Recruiting former ABB bandmates, guitarist Derek Trucks and Oteil Burbridge, this stripped-down trio version features the Bronx-born Quiñones on lead vocals and congas.

The song was recorded down in Florida at Unity One Studio in Miami and Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi‘s home studio in Jacksonville. Let’s hope these guys get together to bless us with some more beautiful music sooner rather than later. Check out their version of the classic Allman’s number below.
