Rock ’n’ roll recording artists and globe-trotting journeymen Devon Allman and Donavon Frankenreiter are hoping to make history in 2023. With their current “See It All American Tour” the longtime friends are attempting to set the official world record for fastest time to play a concert in each of the 50 states, which is currently 50 in 50 days set in 2003.

The concept is simple, but the execution will be brutal as Allman and Frankenreiter seek to complete the challenge in 49 days. The “See It All American Tour” stop for New York will take place on Sunday, August 6, at Surf Lodge in Montauk.

To commemorate this special occasion, the two multi-talented artists just released a collaborative EP, “Rollers,” on Friday, June 23, serving as the soundtrack for their upcoming tour. The 6-song collection, produced by Luther Dickinson of the multiple Grammy-nominated North Mississippi Allstars and available via Allman’s Create Records, features the previously released singles “Calling All You Riders” and “See It All” as well as a guest appearance from Maggie Rose on the new track “We Belong.”

The “See It All American Tour” kicks off August 5, with two shows in one day, first in Maryland and then Pennsylvania. From there, the tour will officially take off bringing these road warriors to places they’ve never been, at a pace that’s never been done, testing their wills at every turn, before wrapping September 22, in California at BeachLife Ranch, the second annual coastal country SoCal festival co-founded by Frankenreiter, with hopeful celebrations.

Along the way, Devon and Donavon will perform a collaborative set, including music from their Rollers EP as well as each of their own solo songs, with a four-piece backing band.

For nearly four decades, Donavon Frankenreiter has been traveling the globe, first as a professional surfer and now as a musician. With over a dozen albums under his belt, Frankenreiter has worked it on the touring trail worldwide for three decades, entertaining audiences with his unique blend of laid-back grooves, philosophical lyrics and soulful delivery.

Blues Music Award-winning singer, guitarist, songwriter, and producer Devon Allman (son of rock legend Gregg Allman) has appeared at the world’s biggest festivals and co-founded the supergroups Royal Southern Brotherhood and The Allman Betts Band, amassing a recording catalog of 11 albums. Allman also writes a column for Guitar Player Magazine and serves on the board of directors for the National Blues Museum.
