Allman Family Revival heads out on national tour

Celebrating the life and music of Gregg Allman.

We are in the sixth year of saluting my Dad's music and life for the Allman Family Revival...but it's reaching beyond that initial sentiment. It's galvanizing relationships within our generation of musicians. It's continuing a tradition of feel based music and it's an honor to put these shows on. Because at the end of the day I feel it's way more about perpetuating this art form than it is about leaving our mark. Our true mark is simply the continuance....making sure we inspire the next in line to take the stage."

Away From The Shire Billy Strings Asheville NC

This past weekend saw a Frodo Baggins version of Billy Strings and his merry band usher in Halloween with a "Lord of the Rings"-themed weekend titled "Away from the Shire" at Harrah's Cherokee Center in Asheville, NC. The commitment to their level of detail in their setlists and their costumes was as epic as the Tolkien tale itself. Each night followed the tale of one of the trilogy’s three books: “Fellowship of the Ring”, “The Two Towers”, and “The Return of the King”.

What can I say other than it was a beautiful night in Morrison, Colorado at Red Rocks. The heat of the day peaking out around 96* and then the weather came in and cooled everything off temperature wise. This is the way you should see Reggae music! Fortunate youth took the stage first, dealing with the nice breeze coming down from the surrounding mountains, they brought the heat. They hail from, Hermosa Beach, California and all I can say is, what a band! Supporting their album, "Good times" witch was released in 2021. Go out and get it for your reggae collection!
