Our Story

Our Influences
While The Allman Revival® officially started in 2023, the core members were performing together for a decade prior to that, and the idea of an ABB Tribute began around 2015. Why did it take so long you ask? Well simply, it took that long to assemble the right parts... pro musicians who were not only capable of playing this difficult music, but passionate about the music and the project.

It will come as no surprise to learn that while the various band members each have their own musical influences across a variety of genres (something we have in common with The ABB) we all share our love and respect for The Brothers and each of us considers them to be a major influence on our musical history and journey. For most of us, The ABB sits alone as our main musical influence.

For each of them T.A.B. was THE music that shaped them as musicians when they were teenagers so if they were going to tackle this difficult project, they were going to do it right...with the best possible musicians and a commitment to authenticity. Mission Accomplished!

From writing what you are reading now and creating/managing this website to hiring and managing musicians, booking shows, working with agents, venues, clients, soundmen, etc. to managing schedules and.....well, basically all the non-playing-music stuff. Most importantly though is that I learned how to play bass locked in my room playing to Fillmore East as a teenager...so you can say I've been training a lifetime for this project!

Although involved in music for decades, performing this music was always something he hoped to do, and now he is, and now you get to enjoy it. In addition to being our singer, he is also the resident expert on all things T.A.B......having studied their history and their stories.

For Lou, this was not just another project...it was the music he had been playing since he bought his first music book (of T.A.B.) as a teenager while learning guitar. Anyone who plays guitar will tell you that this is NOT easy music to replicate...but as a consummate pro with a commitment to accuracy and a love of this music, he nails it

Anyone who plays guitar will tell you that this is NOT easy music to replicate...but as a consummate pro with a commitment to accuracy and a love of this music, he nails it...moving effortlessly (OK, it takes effort) from Duane Allman to Dickie Betts to Warren Haynes while also serving as the bands on-stage Musical Director
