Allman Brothers Tribute – End of the Line

The Grand Theatre 308 Saint Clair St., Frankfort, KY, United States

End Of The Line is the premiere Allman Brothers tribute band. From the authentic, raspy vocal approach of Justin Smith to the chugging drum/percussion train of Ryan McClanahan & Dave Czuba, the band both pays homage while pushing the boundaries of the timeless & extensive catalog. Carrying the electric weight of Dickey is Adam Gorman, who is the band’s lone Maconite, and joining him as the counterpart Duane is Noah Pavey. Last, but certainly not least, the low end duties are vastly covered by Casey Conway, who is a perfect bottom end sandwich of Berry, Allen, and Oteil.
