Allman and Frankenreiter will attempt to set the official world record with fifty shows in fifty states in less than fifty days. The tour runs August 5 through September 22. The duo have just released their new collaborative EP Rollers on Allman's Create Records. The six-song collection, produced by Luther Dickinson of the multiple Grammy-nominated Mississippi All-Stars and mastered by Brad Sarno at Blue Jade Audio, features the previously-released singles "Calling All You Riders" and "See It All" as well as a guest appearance by Maggie Rose on the new track "We Belong." The songs on Rollers serve as the soundtrack for the See It All Tour, which will find Allman and Frankenreiter attempt to set the official world record for for the faster time to play a concert in each of the fifty states, currently fifty in fifty days, set in 2003. The concept is simple, but the execution will be brutal as the longtime friends seek to complete the challenge in forty-nine days.
"We are so stoked for Rollers to roll out into the universe!," exclaims Allman. "Each song is like a scene from a movie...there's definitely a cinematic aesthetic poppin'. I would also posit, it's quite green-friendly. Enjoy the roll."
Adds Frankenreiter, "we are going to see it all on this tour and we're so excited to have a soundtrack to go along with this world record attempt."
Tickets range from $49-$64 and are available for purchase online. The Newton Theatre is located at 234 Spring Street in Newton, New Jersey.
Rollers, available now digitally and in CD format\ with vinyl to follow later this Summer, opens with the dark country and western vibes of "Calling All you Riders," inviting listeners along on their upcoming American journey where they will "See It All."

Following the rockin' "Where Ya Gonna Run To?," Rollers rides off into the sunset with the instrumental "Acapulco Gold."
