ABOUT GREGG ALLMAN
Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Gregg Allman is both a founding member of one of the biggest and most important American bands of all time, the still-active and thriving Allman Brothers Band, and a critically acclaimed solo talent, who currently records and tours with Gregg Allman & Friends. A natural artist gifted with a beautifully soulful and distinctive voice as well as brilliant keyboard and guitar expertise, Allman is a legendary performer who, more than thirty years down the road, still loves making music as much as ever.
At the start of his enduring career, Gregg Allman and brother Duane put together a number of different groups, including their very first professional ones, The Allman Joys, and The Hour Glass. Whatever the configuration, Gregg's powerful lead vocals, emerging songwriting and keyboard prowess perfectly complemented Duane's now legendary guitar virtuosity. In 1969, their brotherhood made history with the formation of the massively influential act that both kick-started the entire genre of Southern Rock and defined an era of 70s rock & roll with its freewheeling yet musically masterful sound, The Allman Brothers Band. Greggs languid blues pacing and mournful growl gave his solo work the recognition that he so sorely deserved. The critically well-received hit Laid Back, with hits "Midnight Rider", "Please Call Home", and a slower, groove-laden "Whipping Post" put the softer, more serious, soul- and gospel-tinged side of his work in sharper focus, yielding a tour and live album that was also a success. The 59 year old singer, who now has some gray snaking through his blond ponytail, proved that past years of hard living has remarkably left his voice undamaged. Allman does a tender, bluesy cover of Bob Dylan's "Just Like a Woman," wringing out every note of the song with a beauty that Dylan himself has never been able to give it. There is no better blues singer around."
