Hot on the heels of the Allman Brothers Band’s Beacon residency, this titan of the hollow-body returns to the Allmans’ pied-a-terre, playing original songs from his newly released studio album Man In Motion. It’s a kinetic, gospel-drenched tribute to his North Carolina roots with an airtight horn section and enough gutbucket sturm und drang to remind listeners why they call him “Soulshine.” But there’s nothing like seeing him shred on an extended live jam–sliding seamlessly from David Allan Coe to U2 to “Afro Blue,” Haynes is one of the most versatile fingerpickers out there.
