Manage episode 494935591 series 3508678
In this episode of Billboard's Behind the Setlist podcast we talk to Devon Allman and Duane Betts of the Allman Betts Band. That was Devon Allman in the show opener talking about how many of the people who attend their concerts also saw them when they were young and on the road with the Allman Brothers. Devon is the son of Gregg Alman and Duane is the son of Dickie Betts, and in our conversation both talked about the joy and responsibility of carrying on the legacy of their fathers music.
The Allman Betts Band has released two albums of rootsy Southern rock, Down to the River from 2019 and Bless Your Heart from 2020. Their live shows are a mix of Allman Betts songs with some Allman Brothers covers. Concertgoers are likely to hear older Allman Brothers tunes such as “Blue Sky” and “Ramblin’ Man” as well as songs from the ‘90s like “Nobody Knows,” and they explain why in our conversation.
