Friends of the Brothers with Special Guest Jaimoe
City Winery NYC Presents Friends of the Brothers with Special Guest Jaimoe: A Celebration of the Allman Brothers Band on January 29th at 8:00 PM!
The last standing founder of the Allman Brothers Band Jaimoe makes a rare stage appearance in the Big Apple.
The Friends of the Brothers is a celebration of the music of the Allman Brothers Band, with members closely associated with the original band and continuing the brotherhood with passion, committed to the ideals of every night being special and unique. Guitarist/singer Junior Mack has fronted Jaimoe’s Jasssz Band for 12 years and starred in the critically acclaimed Broadway show Lackawanna Blues. Guitarist Andy Aledort played with Dickey Betts for 12 years, has recorded with Double Trouble and Band of Gypsys and toured with Experience Hendrix. Singer/guitarist Alan Paul is the author of One Way Out, the definitive, best-selling Allman Brothers Band biography based on 25 years of reporting on and interviewing the band. On this rare occasion, the last standing original Allman Brothers Band member, Hall of Famer Jaimoe will join the band.
"This band is based around our shared love of the Allman Brothers Band and our friendships with one another," says Paul. "It's not just a gig. The music is holy to us, but it's also alive. We honor our friends and mentors' legacies by investing this great music with life, heart and passion. It's not about copying solos, which would be completely against the spirit the Allman Brothers had from the day Duane Allman formed the band in 1969."
