The Music Box at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa is set to host The Allman Betts Band alongside special guest Mattie Schell on Saturday, June 21, 2025, with the show kicking off at 8:00 pm. Devon Allman and Duane Betts, iconic figures in the realm of American roots music as individual solo artists and guitarists, have combined their talents to lead The Allman Betts Band. This supergroup is characterized by its exceptional songwriting, dynamic guitar work, and a profound musical heritage that sets it apart.
Incorporating elements from the timeless sounds of the band’s historical roots, The Allman Betts Band produces rock and roll that transcends traditional boundaries, blending the essence of blues, Americana, and southern soul into a contemporary musical landscape. Complemented by a talented ensemble featuring Alex Orbison on drums, Justin Corgan on bass, slide guitarist Johnny Stachela, Hammond B3 organist John Ginty, and John Lum on drums, The Allman Betts Band delivers a unique and captivating musical experience.
In addition to their acclaimed studio albums such as Down to the River and Bless Your Heart, which have solidified their own musical legacy, the band’s captivating live performances, including the annual Allman Betts Family Revival, have enhanced their onstage chemistry. With a nod to their familial roots, The Allman Betts Band pays homage to their influences while carving out a distinctive sound for the modern era.
Delving into their personal history, Devon and Duane first crossed paths as children in 1989 during The Allman Brothers Band’s 20th-anniversary tour, where their fathers, Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts, were pivotal members. This shared experience laid the foundation for their enduring bond, which eventually culminated in the inception of The Allman Betts Band during a concert at the Fillmore in San Francisco in late 2017. The concert marked Devon’s tribute to his late father’s 70th birthday and solidified the duo’s artistic chemistry, leading to the formation of the band.
Embracing their musical lineage while forging a path for the future, The Allman Betts Band embodies a fusion of tradition and innovation that resonates with audiences. Drawing inspiration from their fathers’ legacy, Devon and Duane have created a band that encapsulates the spirit of the American South, imbuing their music with a contemporary flair that transcends genre boundaries. The band’s distinctive blend of blues, Americana, and rock & roll showcases their songwriting prowess and exceptional guitar skills, reaffirming their status as prominent figures in the modern music scene.
