Although guitarist andsongwriter Devon Allman shares asurname that will ring familiar to rock and roll


fans, the Royal Southern Brother­ hood guitarist has created a sonic soundallofhisown.


The son of Allman Brothers Band, founding member, vocalist and keyboard player Gregg Allman, and nephew ofvirtuoso guitarist Duane, he has inherited a rich musical fam- ilyheritage.


“Hookup to dad’ssongwritingjust


as 1 look up to others from his era, but I’ve not let his influence change my path,” said Devon. “That, I think, would cloud my in­


tentions ofbeinga person that makes music. I’m much more concerned with becoming the best musician I can be, and what I can actually give back to music than to think about pressure, expectations or compari­ sons. That would be counterproduc­ tive. It doesn’t affect me in a negative

Devon has a tattoo of his hero Cur­


tis Mayfield etched on his right bicep. “When I visited the Rock and Roll

and I saw Mayfield’s guitar and hat, and the Tom Petty lyrics for ‘Stop Draggin My Heart Around’, it was


just fascinating to imagine how mu­ sic has influenced so many genera- • tions,” added Devon. “I never tire of listening to Curtis

“Music was always around me as
