South Carolina native singer-songwriter/guitarist Marcus King got his start as a child playing with his father’s band. His unique brand of “soul-influenced psychedelic Southern Rock” caught the ear of the Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach, who produced and released King’s 2020 debut solo album El Dorado. His career immediately skyrocketed; he racked up streaming numbers in the tens of millions and a Grammy nomination. He has since released two more albums, including this year’s Mood Swings, which received rave reviews in Rolling Stone and No Depression. “The ferocity and aggression Hendrix played with was what I was immediately drawn to,” said King. “A soft-spoken man allowing his instrument to truly be his VOICE – channeling all his frustrations and pain through this vessel. I’m so honored to pay homage and respect to such a Giant and key contributor to my Musical biological makeup.”

Guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Devon Allman has been making music since the 1990s in various bands (Honeytribe, Royal Southern Brotherhood) and as a solo artist, before founding The Allman Betts Band in 2018 with Duane Betts. There is a familial connection, as their fathers Duane Allman and Dickey Betts were in The Allman Brothers Band, who played the 1970 Atlanta International Pop Festival with the Jimi Hendrix Experience. Devon Allman’s musical style ranges from Southern Rock to soul to blues, making him a perfect candidate for taking on the immense challenge of doing Hendrix’s music justice in a live setting. “Really looking forward to celebrating the eternal, cosmic music of Jimi Hendrix,” stated Devon Allman. “His singing voice has inspired me just as much as his ethereal, Martian, liquid-esque guitar. It’s gonna be a stone cold groove…be with us!”

Kenny Wayne Shepherd’s soulful and pitch-perfect guitar playing has been a key component of the Experience Hendrix Tour for many years. The five-time Grammy nominee and recipient of two Billboard Music Awards commented, “I’m excited to be a part of the Experience Hendrix Tour again. This tour always offers fans a unique opportunity to see artists from multiple genres of music all honoring the great Jimi Hendrix. The diversity of the artists that take part every year only goes to show the vast reach of Jimi Hendrix’s influence.”
