Formed in the early ‘90s by later period Allman Brothers Band vets Warren Haynes and Allen Woody, Gov’t Mule has become much more than a side project. With the addition of Dicky Betts drummer Matt Abts, the band set out to pay tribute to the music of ‘60s power trios like Cream and the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Gov’t Mule celebrates the release of High and Mighty, its second album as a quartet with a tour featuring stunning musicianship and songs that are firmly rooted in the classics while pushing the blues-rock into the future. Donavon Frankenreiter’s second album Move By Yourself puts the California songwriter in the front of the roots musician/surfer pack. Occasionally funky and consistently engaging, the keyboard-dominated album recalls Talking Book-era Stevie Wonder. His nonchalant delivery imbues these soulful slices of pop perfection with a laidback wonder that has captivated audiences worldwide.
