Allgood Music Company

Allgood, originally called Allgood Music Company, was originally based out of Athens, GA from 1988 - 1995. Through constant touring, the band grew a following throughout the US. Endless gigging, constantly changing set lists and long improvisational jams gave the band their chops. Eight years of touring, four records and thousands of passionate fans later the band decided to call it quits in 1995. The band reformed briefly in 2006, with three members of the original lineup, and played two sold out shows in Columbus and Athens GA. In July of 2010 Allgood headlined the BRAGG Jam Festival in Macon GA, playing to a capacity crowd at the magnificent Capitol Theater. Allgood is currently booking dates, writing songs and plans to release more music for download and purchase. HISTORY OF RECORDINGS, ETC. Allgood first recording effort was a hastily recorded demo done in Atlanta in 1989. The band created a demo tape of original songs entitled "Reel to Real" which was the name of the small studio where the work was done. About a year later the band put their gig money toward recording a single with John Keane. The two songs were "Seventh in Line" and "Where You Belong" and were released exclusively on a 45 rpm called "Meat Salad". Meat Salad received airplay across the southeastern college radio waves. In 1991, the band worked with the legendary producer, Johnny Sandlin to record their first full length record, "Ride the Bee". The band polished a few of the songs from the Real to Reel demo and added many more songs to complete the effort. The record was sold in independent stores across the southern states and sold at shows. In 1993, the band was signed to A&M records and soon afterwards 'Uncommon Goal' was released. Like earlier efforts, Uncommon Goal included songs that the band had written and arranged during touring. "Kickin' and Screamin'", a live EP was released following Uncommon Goal. This highlighted live version of songs from Ride the Bee and Uncommon Goal along with two unreleased songs, Blood and Sugar Sweet. Boyd Tinsley from the Dave Matthews Band joins the band on an extended "Trilogy".
