The Allman Betts Band in 2020
Devon Allman has announced the fifth annual Allman Family Revival, described in a press release as “a celebration of the life, spirit, and music of Gregg Allman, hosted by his son, Blues Music Award-winning Devon Allman, and anchored by his group, the Allman Betts Band.”
The announcement continues: “On what would have been Gregg Allman’s 70th birthday (December 8, 2017), Devon decided to gather his talented friends to pay homage musically.

Musicians that had toured with Gregg, jammed with Gregg and were inspired by Gregg turned up to throw down. Legends like Robin Zander of Cheap Trick, wunderkind Marcus King, and the Orbisons, all took part in the inaugural performance, laying the groundwork for the Allman Family Revival to be an annual who’s who of musical talent. “

Now a yearly tradition, the annual celebration has evolved into a full-fledged coast-to-coast tour. Based on the format of “The Last Waltz” concert, with the Allman Betts Band as the house band and featuring up to a dozen marquee names in music, it’s “an epic three-hour show unlike any other.”
This year the touring lineup will include the Allman Betts Band, Robert Randolph, Donavon Frankenreiter, Lilly Hiatt, Cody and Luther Dickinson, Eric Gales, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Jimmy Hall, Lamar Williams Jr., plus many more to be announced. The Allman Family Revival will also feature Kenny Wayne Shepherd, G. Love, Samantha Fish, Alex Orbison and Kenny Aronoff in select markets.
Public on-sale begins 9/17. Tickets are available here.
