DESCRIPTION:
Made in memory of Gregg Allman.


Southern rock is a subgenre of rock music that blends elements of rock and roll, blues, and country music. The genre saw its first wave of popularity in the early 1970s with groups like The Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, and Charlie Daniels. These groups remained popular throughout the 1970s, but following the breakup of The Allman Brothers Band, the Lynyrd Skynyrd plane crash, and the rise of new wave music, the genre faded from the spotlight. However, 1980s and 1990s acts like Molly Hatchet and the Black Crowes remained popular, with the latter being voted the "Best New American Band" by readers of Rolling Stone in 1990. Nowadays acts like Kid Rock and Whitey Morgan and the 78's have maintained the genre's popularity in the 21st century. Some groups from the classic era of southern rock are still active today, like ZZ Top, Atlanta Rhythm Section, and Blackfoot.
