THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND

CONFIRM SUMMER TOUR PLANS

INCLUDING SIX CO-HEADLINING DATES WITH SANTANA


The Allman Brothers Band

The Allman Brothers Band continue to celebrate the “Year Of The Peach” with more live shows just announced. The band has confirmed six co-headlining dates with Santana (see all dates below) as well as one-off festival dates, their own Peach Festival in Scranton, PA and dates with moe. and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

The band–Gregg Allman (vocals and keyboards), Butch Trucks (drums and tympani), Jaimoe (drums), Warren Haynes (vocals, lead and slide guitar), Derek Trucks (slide and lead guitar), Oteil Burbridge (bass) and Marc Quinones (congas and percussion)–are particularly excited about the dates with Santana, with whom they’ve only performed at various festivals. “We’ve all wanted to do this for a very long time, says Gregg. “It”s been a long time coming and the whole band is looking forward to what’s gonna happen on stage together.” Tickets for these shows go on sale later this week (see below).

In other news, the group has announced another gem from their archival series of releases: Live From American University (12/30/1970). Out of print for several years since it was first released, the album was recorded just three months before their Live at Fillmore East album. The American University album (out May 8 via Peach Records/Entertainment One Music) features the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame bands original lineup: Gregg Allman (vocals and keyboards), Duane Allman (slide and lead guitar), Butch Trucks (drums and tympani), Jaimoe (drums), Dickey Betts (slide and lead guitar) and Berry Oakley (bass).

    INCLUDES 150-PAGE BOOK, 57 TRACKS, 21 PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED
    PERFORMANCES & 6 NEVER-BEFORE-HEARD ORIGINAL SONGS

    In honor of the Woody Guthrie Centennial, a year-long celebration of Woody’s 100th birthday, Smithsonian Folkways presents an in-depth commemorative collection of songs, photos and essays on one of America’s most treasured 20th-century icons.

    Woody at 100: The Woody Guthrie Centennial Collection is a 150-page large-format book containing three CDs with 57 tracks, including Woody’s most important recordings such as the complete version of “This Land Is Your Land,” “Pretty Boy Floyd,” “Pastures of Plenty,” “Hard Travelin’,” “Jesus Christ,” “I Ain’t Got No Home in This World Anymore,” and “Riding in My Car.” The set also contains 21 previously unreleased performances and six never-before-heard original songs, including Woody’s first known — and recently discovered — recordings from 1937.

    The Smithsonian Folkways archives hold the largest collection of Woody’s recordings (he recorded hundreds of songs for Folkways Records founder Moses Asch).

    SUMMER TOUR TO INCLUDE
    ICONIC AMPHITHEATRES ACROSS NORTH AMERICA


    Foster The People

    Foster The People will kick off their Summer tour on May 29 including three sold-out nights in New York City’s Central Park playing to 17,000. The band will also make their debut at this year’s Bonnaroo Arts and Music Festival. Foster The People will go on to play multiple sold-out shows in major cities around North America, including nights at Chicago’s Congress Theatre, the Gibson Theatre in Los Angeles, and a performance at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado (see all dates below). Support along the way will include The Kooks, Tokyo Police Club, Mayer Hawthorne & The County and Kimbra.

    During their summer tour, Foster The People will reunite with The Beach Boys in Cubbie Fink’s hometown of San Diego, CA at Cricket Wireless Amphitheatre, as well as in Mark Foster’s hometown amphitheater, Blossom Music Center in Cuyahoga Falls, OH.

    A month shy of the one year anniversary of Torches, Foster The People have released the video for their fourth single, “Houdini.” The video premiered worldwide today on MTV and is streaming on MTV.com. Directed by Daniels (The Shins, Chromeo, Battles), the video for “Houdini” is a darkly comedic take on the age-old saying “the show must go on.”
