Devon Allman announced show dates for the sixth annual Allman Family Revival, which honors the life and music of his father, Gregg Allman. The tour will include multiple artists and bands such as Duane Betts, Donavan Frankenreiter, Maggie Rose, and many more.
The Allman Family Revival began out of a one-time concert in 2017 in San Francisco. Devon Allman brought together musical talent for a three-hour show in honor of his late father, who passed in May of 2017. Using music as medicine, the show has since expanded into a full tour with multiple dates and cities able to experience the celebration and legacy of Gregg Allman.
One of rock and roll’s most influential artists, Gregg Allman was known for his performances as a part of the Allman Brothers Band in addition to his successful solo career. Allman blazed the way for southern rock groups and continues to be an inspiration to this day.
Beginning in 1989, the Allmans began a long-lasting tradition of playing at the Beacon Theatre. The band would return to the venue almost every March, the perfect spring destination for fans to enjoy their music. The band’s last show at the iconic venue would occur in October of 2014, marking 238 sold-out shows at the theatre.
The Allman Family Revival Beacon Theatre show will feature the talents of Duane Betts, Jimmy Hall, Luther Dickinson, Ivan Neville, Ian Neville, Tony Hall, Maggie Rose, Larry McCray, River Kittens, Orbi Orbison, and Donovan Frankenreiter with the band Dumpstaphunk supporting.
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.
