The Allman Brothers Band still touring after 35 years
The Allman Brothers Band , who are celebrating their 35th anniversary this year, are set to play a series of U.S. concert dates that run from July through September.
The outing gets underway with a July 3 co-headlining show with The Dead at Washington State's Gorge amphitheater, and also includes a two-night stand in the Denver area with The String Cheese Incident.
Though tickets for most shows aren't currently on sale through traditional outlets, presale tickets have hit the market for several dates. Details are available at the Allmans' website.
The Allmans opened their touring year in March as they normally do: with a sold out, multi-night stand at New York City's Beacon Theatre.
Also in March, the group released the double-live CD "One Way Out," which was recorded during two of the group's 13 performances at the Beacon Theatre in 2003. The set includes the 15 songs housed on the group's "Live at the Beacon Theatre" DVD, which surfaced in February, as well as four additional tracks: "Every Hungry Woman," "Trouble No More," "Wasted Words" and "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl."
The Allman Brothers Band released their self-titled, debut album in 1969. The group's most-recent studio release is 2003's "Hittin' the Note," which is its first new studio set in nine years.
"Instrumental Illness," a track from "Hittin' the Note," was nominated for a Grammy award in the Best Rock Instrumental Performance category. (The award went to Jeff Beck's "Plan B.")
The band's lineup now features Gregg Allman (vocals, keyboards), Butch Trucks (percussion), Derek Trucks (guitar), Marc Quinones (percussion), Oteil Burbridge (bass), Jaimoe (percussion) and Warren Haynes (guitar).
