Gregg Allman: The Music of My Soul

Gregg Allman was one of the founding figures of American rock, a vocalist, songwriter, and organist whose voice carried more lived experience than almost anyone else in music. Now, his full story comes to the screen. Directed by GRAMMY and Emmy Award winning filmmaker James Keach, The Sound of My Voice, Gregg Allman: The Music of My Soul is the definitive portrait of one of rock’s most towering and complicated figures. Plus, join us for an engaging and enlightening post-screening Q&A.

• The Full Story, Finally Told: Drawing on archival recordings, unseen interviews, and rare Allman Brothers Band live footage, the film traces Allman’s journey from his formative years through the meteoric rise of the ABB, the shattering loss of his brother Duane, decades of addiction and redemption, and a prolific solo career.
• A Filmmaker Who Understands the Territory: Keach brings the same empathy and narrative rigor to Allman’s story that he brought to Glen Campbell’s battle with Alzheimer’s and Linda Ronstadt’s loss of her voice. That understanding of how trauma and artistry intertwine is what makes this film something deeper than a standard music documentary.
• After the Film: An Intimate Conversation – Following the screening, the evening continues with a live talkback and Q&A hosted by Michael Lehman, Allman’s longtime manager, producer, and close friend; and Alan Paul, singer and guitarist with Friends of the Brothers and author of two New York Times bestselling books about the Allman Brothers Band. This is not a panel of commentators, these are people who were there.

This film is not a highlight reel; it’s a fully realized portrait of the man behind the icon. For fans of the Allman Brothers Band, and anyone who believes that great art comes from the hardest places, this one is not to be missed.
