DEVON ALLMAN'S HONEYTRIBE Space Age Blues (2010 UK 11-track CD album - Devon Allman's second album with bassist George Potsos and drummer Gabriel Strange, the 11 tracks on 'Space Age Blues' offer a musical thrill ride, carefully constructed, butfull of surprises like guitar licks that explode into whistling comet trails, lush beds of strings and an overall sonic palette that draws on the best of electric music's past and present. There is an emphasis on composition and the band has captured something timeless amongst these songs. As the lyrics of the song 'Space Age Blues' speak to the theme of life in the digital age, Allman, Potsos and Strange draw from the wellspring of Curtis Mayfield and Led Zeppelin to define their own distinctive Southern-rooted fusion musically. With special guest appearances from Eighties megastar Huey Lewis, who lends his badass harmonica skills to 'Could Get Dangerous', Ron Holloway, Dizzy Gillespie's veteran saxophonist who delivers a masterful performance. Virtuoso Violinist Bobby Yang from Kevin Costner's Modern West, serves as a one-man string section bowing all the violins via overdubbing on the ballad 'Warm in Wintertime'. Tony Antonelli adds percussion, and Memphis session veteran Rick Steff plays electric keyboards, leaving the acoustic piano to Allman)
