The stop at the intimate Godfrey Daniels, which the club said was booked on very short notice, will come a day before the seven-member Brothers and Sisters Band plays the massive Allman Brothers Peach Festival at Montage in Scranton. That show also will be a 50th anniversary tribute to the “Brothers and Sisters” disc.
The disc was The Allman Brothers’ third studio album and first to sell platinum, and was the only Allmans album to hit No.1 on the Albums chart.
It contains the hit “Ramblin’ Man,” which hit No. 2 — The Allmans’ highest-charting single in the band’s 33-year career.
Vaylor Trucks, now an accomplished guitar player who has performed for decades, was pictured as a tot on the album’s cover. Melody Trucks, who sang with her father’s side project Butch Trucks and The Freight Train Band and also as a solo performer, was pictured as a baby on the album’s inside cover.
Brothers and Sisters Band also includes Freight Train Band member Garrett Dawson, Eric Sanders, Kris Dale, Pete Orenstein and Willis Gore.
The Freight Train Band, with Butch Trucks, was scheduled to perform at Musikfest Cafe at ArtsQuest Center in Bethlehem when Trucks died in 2017.
