Artist Bio

Michael Allman was born and raised in Daytona Beach, Florida. He is lead vocalist and frontman to the Michael Allman Band. Even though Michael looks and sounds very similar to his father, Gregg Allman, he has his own distinctive style of Blues and Rock.Touring all over the country, Michael is spreading his family’s blend of roots, rock and blues. “I’m a singer and a gypsy who needs to fly another way,” Allman says, quoting lyrics from his song, “It Ain’t Me”.

Michael performs his original songs from his album, Hard Labor Creek, such as “If Dreams Were Money” and “Mule Named Whiskey” as well as covering songs from The Allman Brothers Band.Allman’s half-siblings are Layla Brooklyn Allman, whose band Picture Me Broken won a regional breakout artist competition as part of the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards; Devon Allman, who heads the band Honeytribe and Royal Southern Brotherhood, and Elijah Blue, son of Cher, singer and guitarist for the rock band Deadsy.

Michael’s dad is legendary rocker, Gregg Allman, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, rock and blues singer-songwriter, keyboardist, guitarist, and a founding member of The Allman Brothers Band.

Duane Betts & Palmetto Motel

Duane Betts ignites and brings an evolution to the Southern rock tradition. With a fiery legacy forged by his father, the legendary Dickey Betts, the second generation musician infuses it with his own soul-stirring blend of blues, raw passion, and six-string mastery. Backed by his band, Palmetto Motel, Betts delivers a dynamic live show filled with searing guitar solos, heartfelt storytelling, and a mix of classic influences with fresh energy. Fans can expect a blend of roots rock, blues, and some improvisational jamming, creating an electrifying yet deeply authentic experience. With top-tier musicianship, a connection to rock ‘n’ roll history, and the desire to make every performance a true experience, a Palmetto Motel show is an unforgettable journey that no music lover should miss.
