About this concert
By the time Duane Betts began working on Wild & Precious Life — his triumphant debut solo album — he'd already spent two decades creating his own version of guitar-slinging, story-driven American rock & roll. "It felt like the right time to make something that was entirely my own vision," he says. "This is a record that guitar players will love, but at its core, it's really a song record. It's an album about who I am, where I come from, and what I believe in." The years leading up to Wild & Precious Life's creation were a whirlwind. Duane cut his teeth with the bands Backbone69 and Whitestarr, then spent the better part of ten years playing guitar alongside his father — legendary Allman Brothers co-founder Dickey Betts — as a member of Dickey Betts & Great Southern. He’d also travel the world as a touring member of Dawes before releasing an EP of his own songs, Sketches of American Music, in 2018. As the decade drew to a close, Duane co-founded The Allman Betts Band, releasing two records in 2019 and 2020.

Albeit nothing beats hearing ABB hits - ALLMAN BETTS playing their own tunes was the highlight in my book- so tight and crisp and perfected. If they were to ever ask the audience for a request- it would be that Duane Betts sings the song by his father "SAIL AWAY," from the ABB Enlightened Rogues album. When the song DREAMS came about, I saw a few people wiping the tears off their faces- that 20-minute jam put us all in a coma. This band is worth seeing over and over- traveling to venues where can. Even though Jimmy Hall will be joining them for the Family Revival Tour and not present in Honolulu, I myself could not keep from smilin' the whole show. Ten stars out of ten stars it was.

Duane Betts Biography
As a teen, Duane Betts cut his teeth sitting-in regularly with Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees The Allman Brothers Band. A consummate musician, Betts led Malibu rock-n-roll outfits such as Backbone69 and Whitestarr, then ascended to a near-decade stint playing guitar alongside his father, Dickey Betts, in his group, Great Southern. Whether as a touring guitarist for folk-rockers Dawes or sharing the stage with luminaries from Kid Rock and Jack Johnson to Gov't Mule and Phil Lesh, Betts’ six-string stories and impassioned songs portray a life, and a history, steeped in blues, rock-n-roll, and country music tradition. 2017 saw Duane record and tour with the band JAMTOWN, featuring G.Love, Donavon Frankenreiter, and Cisco Adler. Currently Betts is getting ready to perform music from his highly anticipated EP: Sketches of American Music. The guitarist and singer will partner up with The Devon Allman Project for a world tour as well as reuniting with dad Dickey for a slate of summer shows and festival appearances.
