Southern Rockfest Featuring A Brother’s Revival and Classic Skynyrd Live

Friday, October 11, 2024 @ 8:00pm



Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC)
30 North Van Brunt Street, Englewood, NJ 07631

Southern Rockfest, featuring A Brother’s Revival and Classic Skynyrd Live, pays tribute to two of Southern rock’s greatest bands.

David “Rook” Goldflies, the former bassist of the Allman Brothers Band, is the founding member and band leader of A Brothers Revival (ABR). This position uniquely positions ABR to carry on the legacy of the Allman Brothers Band’s music.

David recorded three albums with the Allman Brothers (Enlightened Rogues, Brothers of the Road, and Reach for the Sky) and one album with Dickey Betts and Great Southern (Atlanta’s Burning Down). He toured extensively in the U.S. and Europe with the Allman Brothers and Dickey Betts, and Great Southern for over six years.

His tenure in the Allman Brothers Band, alongside Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts, Butch Trucks, and Jaimoe, enables A Brothers Revival to capture the energy and creativity that defined the Allman Brothers’ performances.

Lynyrd Skynyrd was the band that defined Southern Rock in the 1970’s and built a fan base that continues to grow today. Classic Skynyrd Live, performed by Southern Steel, pays tribute to this iconic band and its music that continues to be loved by generation after generation of fans. Southern Steel is the requested opening act of The Outlaws when they tour in the Northeast. Their show, Classic Skynyrd Live, delivers an unrivaled level of energy, generating standing ovations and calls for encores time after time. They perform all Lynyrd Skynyrd’s fan favorites, from Free Bird, Simple Man, That Smell, Sweet Home Alabama, Gimme Three Steps, Call Me the Breeze, I Know a Little and so many more.
