ALLEN-FORRESTER BAND

The Allen-Forrester Band is a joint project of New York guitarists Ben Forrester and Josh Allen. Influenced by Southern rock pioneers like the Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, the Black Crowes, and Blackberry Smoke, the two give the classic twin-guitar sound a fresh new lease of life, combining their influences into a rousing mix of crisp blues rock and melodic Southern rock.

The Allen-Forrester Band's live shows are not only characterized by the band's classic American retro sound and Josh Allen's raw blues voice, but also by the band's joy of playing and improvisational skills, to which the German rhythm section (Hendrik Herder on bass and Matthias Böhm on drums) contributes in addition to the two American guitarists.

With their brand-new studio album (released on April 21) in their luggage, the band will embark on their fourth European tour in May 2023 – a must for all fans of American blues and rock!
