Jackson Browne, Steve Winwood, Little Steven Headlining Third Laid Back Festival in Honor of Founder Gregg Allman
The Laid Back Festival show will go on. Less than a month after co-founder Gregg Allman‘s death at age 69, the food and music event will hit the road for a three-city swing in September with an All-Star collection of rock icons paying tribute to the late Allman Brothers Band leader.
Jackson Browne, Steve Winwood, Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul, Peter Wolf and Jaimoe’s Jasssz Band will headline the event, presented in partnership between longtime Allman manager Michael Lehman and Live Nation. Shows will take place at Holmdel, New Jersey’s PNC Bank Arts Center (Sept. 21), Hartford, Connecticut’s XFINITY Theatre (Sept. 23) and Wantagh, New York’s Northwell Health at Jones Beach Theater (Sept. 24).

In addition to music, the event — named for Allman’s 1973 solo debut album, and launched in 2015 as a one-off curated by the singer/keyboardist before expanding in 2016 — also includes food and drink from more than 20 regional restaurants, food trucks, breweries and wineries. Presale ticketing kicks off today (June 13), with the remaining tickets for the general public due on Friday (June 16) at 10 a.m. ET. here.
