The Allman Brothers Band
The Allman Brothers Band was an American rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida in 1969 by brothers Duane Allman( founder, slide guitar and lead guitar) and Gregg Allman( vocals, keyboards, songwriting), as well as Dickey Betts( lead guitar, vocals, songwriting), Berry Oakley( bass guitar), Butch Trucks( drums), and Jai Johanny" Jaimoe" Johanson( drums).
The band incorporated elements of blues, jazz, and country music, and their live shows featured jam band- style improvisation and instrumentals.
The group's first two studio releases," The Allman Brothers Band"( 1969) and" Idlewild South"( 1970)( both released by Capricorn Records), stalled commercially, but their 1971 live release," At Fillmore East", represented an artistic and commercial breakthrough.
The album features extended renderings of their songs" In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and" Whipping Post", and is considered among the best live albums ever made.
Group leader Duane Allman was killed in a motorcycle accident later that year – on October 29, 1971, and the band dedicated" Eat a Peach"( 1972) to his memory, a dual studio/ live album that cemented the band's popularity and featured Gregg Allman's" Melissa" and Dickey Betts's" Blue Sky".
Following the motorcycling death of bassist Berry Oakley exactly one year and 13 days later on November 11, 1972, the group recruited keyboardist Chuck Leavell and bassist Lamar Williams for 1973's" Brothers and Sisters."
This album included Betts's hit single" Ramblin' Man".
These tunes went on to become classic rock radio staples, and placed the group at the forefront of 1970s rock music.
Internal turmoil overtook them soon after; the group dissolved in 1976, reformed briefly at the end of the decade with additional personnel changes, and dissolved again in 1982.
The band reformed once more in 1989, releasing a string of new albums and touring heavily.
A series of personnel changes in the late 1990s was capped by the departure of Betts.
The group found stability during the 2000s with bassist Oteil Burbridge and guitarists Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks( the nephew of their original drummer) and became renowned for their month- long string of shows at New York City's Beacon Theatre each spring.
The band retired for good in October 2014 after their final show at the Beacon Theatre.
Butch Trucks died of a self- inflicted gunshot wound on January 24, 2017, in West Palm Beach, Florida, at the age of 69.
Gregg Allman died from complications arising from liver cancer on May 27, 2017, at his home in Savannah, Georgia, also at the age of 69.
The band has been awarded seven gold and four platinum albums, and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
" Rolling Stone" ranked them 52nd on their list of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time in 2004.

The recording of" Jessica" included on this album won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Instrumental Performance at the 38th Annual Grammy Awards in 1996.
Sea Level (band)
Sea Level was an American jazz fusion band from Macon, Georgia that mixed jazz, blues and rock and existed between 1976 and 1981.
Initially it was an offshoot of The Allman Brothers Band, but as tensions grew between the loss of two of its founding members and personal grievances between Gregg Allman and other bandmates and associates, Sea Level took on a life of its own as an independent band.
After the initial breakup of the Allman Brothers Band when Gregg Allman and Dicky Betts left, most of the remaining members who evolved into Sea Level were the trio" We Three" comprising bassist Lamar Williams, drummer Jaimoe and Chuck Leavell( piano, keyboards, vocals).
The trio would occasionally open shows for the group in 1975 and 1976.
With the Allmans disbanding in 1976, the trio added guitarist Jimmy Nalls and named the band based on a phonetic pun of their new bandleader Chuck Leavell's name:" C. Leavell."
They toured relentlessly, experimenting and refining their sound, eventually signing with Capricorn Records( home of the Allman Brothers) and recording their self- titled debut album in 1977.
Apollo's Fire
Apollo's Fire, The Cleveland Baroque Orchestra is a popular and critically acclaimed period-instrument ensemble specializing in early music (Renaissance, Baroque and early Classical) based in Cleveland, Ohio.
The GRAMMY-winning ensemble unites a select pool of early music specialists from throughout North America and Europe.
Under the direction of Artistic Director Jeannette Sorrell, the ensemble has been noted internationally for creative and innovative programming, and praised by BBC Music Magazine for "forging a vibrant, life-affirming approach to early music... a seductive vision of musical authenticity."
The 31st of February
The 31st of February was a rock and roll band formed by Jacksonville, Florida natives Scott Boyer, David Brown, and Butch Trucks.
All three were alumni of Englewood High School in Jacksonville, though they did not come together musically until Brown and Trucks found themselves living on the same floor of a dormitory at Florida State University in the fall of 1965.
Having heard the folk- rock of groups like The Byrds and The Lovin' Spoonful, saxophonist Brown bought an electric bass and started to jam with drummer Trucks, an alumnus of The Vikings, The Echoes, and the Jacksonville Symphonette.
Guitarist and vocalist Boyer, making his living as a folk singer, was contacted by Brown who offered his and Trucks' services if Boyer would trade his acoustic guitar for an electric guitar.
Boyer agreed and the three formed a group, The Bitter Ind.( short for Independents).
Playing fraternity parties, growing their hair long, and ceasing to attend their classes( in Brown's and Trucks' cases), the group left Tallahassee after the end of the school year and tried their hand at performing in Daytona Beach.
After being turned down repeatedly by club owners, the group found a bit of luck, landing a one- night performance at the Club Martinique.
Shortly into their set, two members of the Allman Joys, a group that frequently appeared at the club, walked in and sat down.
After the group finished, the two members introduced themselves and lavished praise on the group.
They were the namesakes of the Allman Joys, Duane and Gregg Allman.
When the Bitter Ind. relayed their story of their inability to get steady employment, the Allmans offered them free lodging.
In time, the Bitter Ind. returned to Jacksonville discouraged, their meeting with the brothers Allman the only high point of their journey.
Shortly after returning to Jacksonville, however, Trucks received a call from Duane Allman, stating that the Allman Joys were playing at the Beachcomber, a Jacksonville club, and that they needed a drummer.
Trucks agreed to sit in for the night.
After the show, Duane Allman suggested to Trucks to ask the club manager to let the Bitter Ind. audition.
The manager agreed, loved the group's sound, and let them stay on through mid-1967.
After their engagement ended, the group, no doubt under threat of legal action from the New York nightclub
The Bitter End, decided to change their name.
After briefly using the moniker" The Tiffany System", the group found themselves in Miami, Florida, signed to folk giant Vanguard Records as The 31st of February.
Their eponymous debut album was released in early 1968, a mix of folk rock and psychedelic pop.
After its failure to get noticed, the group added a lead guitarist and began to rework their sound.
Almost immediately, the group again ran into Duane and Gregg Allman, who had just broken up their post -Allman Joys group
The Hour Glass.
Electing to join forces, the newly hired guitarist was fired and the remaining five- piece began performing throughout the Southeast.
In September 1968, they began recording material for their second album, including nascent versions of" Melissa"( which would come out on the Allman Brothers Band's" Eat A Peach" album in 1972) and" Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out"( which Duane Allman would later cut with Derek and the Dominos).
Though the material would not come out until four years later, they serve as an important bridge towards the sound that The Allman Brothers Band would be producing within twelve months.
Whilst in the midst of recording and touring, Gregg Allman elected to move out to southern California in order to let his brother and the remaining members of the Hour Glass be freed from their contract with Liberty Records.
Though Gregg offered the others positions in his backing band, nothing came of it and in a matter of months, Butch Trucks would join Duane and Gregg Allman in The Allman Brothers Band.
Scott
Boyer ended up forming the group Cowboy with Tommy Talton, eventually signing to the Allman Brothers Band's label, Capricorn Records.
He had artery replacement surgery and was the subject of benefit gigs in 2007.
David Brown ended up a studio bassist, eventually joining Boz Scaggs's band and, later, Cowboy with Boyer.
He remains a member of Norton Buffalo and the Knockouts despite Norton Buffalo's untimely death on 30 October 2009.
After joining the Allman Brothers Band, Butch Trucks has stayed there since 1969, save for the group's first( 1976 – 1979) and second( 1982–1989) hiatuses.
Les Brers
Les Brers was an American rock band formed by former members of The Allman Brothers Band.
They were initially led by original Allman Brothers drummer Butch Trucks.
The Allman Brothers Band Museum
The Allman Brothers Band Museum, also known as The Big House, is a museum in Macon, Georgia, United States.
It was the home to The Allman Brothers Band's original members, their families, and various friends from 1970 to 1973.
The Big House was renovated by The Big House Foundation and opened in November 2009 as an interactive museum dedicated to identifying and preserving the history of The Allman Brothers Band.
