The Blue Sky Dogs (A tribute to the Allman Brothers Band)

3to1 presents: The Blue Sky Dogs (A tribute to the Allman Brothers Band)

The Blue Sky Dogs came out of a special connection that lead guitarist, Tom Kiefaber has to the ABB. Tom’s dad, Tom Kiefaber Sr played bass with Dickey Betts in “The Jokers” back in the 60’s before Dickey joined the ABB. Rick Derringer referenced the Jokers in “Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo” In 1970, Tom’s first musical memory is backstage at an Allman Brothers show when he was 4 years old. Tom and his dad Tom Sr both have sat in with the ABB several times. After playing tons of Allman Brothers music for years, we decided to do a tribute. The music is authentic, we also have a visual show (Freakie Beat Visuals) that compliments the experience when appropriate.
