Devon Allman has been immersed in the world of blues and rock his entire life. As the son of the legendary Gregg Allman, Devon Allman grew up surrounded by the rich musical legacy of the Allman Brothers Band, a group that played a pivotal role in shaping the Southern rock and blues sound.

Devon Allman Blues Summit is a powerhouse gathering of blues legends that promises to electrify the stage. This summit brings together an all-star lineup that includes the legendary Jimmy Hall, the soulful voice behind the iconic Southern rock band Wet Willie. Hall has left an indelible mark on the world of music with his distinctive blend of blues, rock, and R&B. Born in Mobile, Alabama, Hall’s passion for music was evident from a young age, leading him to form Wet Willie in the late 1960s. The band quickly gained popularity for their vibrant live performances and chart-topping hits like “Keep on Smilin’.”

Adding to the line up’s historical legacy is Larry McCray. McCray is a legendary blues guitarist and singer renowned for his soulful sound and emotive guitar work. McCray has carved out a prominent place in the blues music scene with his powerful voice and deft guitar playing. Emerging onto the scene in the late 1980s, he quickly gained attention for his blend of contemporary blues, rock, and soul influences.

Rounding out the Devon Allman Blues Summit is the powerhouse vocalist Laka, a captivating soul singer from St. Louis whose powerful voice and heartfelt performances have earned her a distinguished place in the local blues scene.
