THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND have finalized the line-up and set times for next weekend’s (August 15-18) second annual PEACH MUSIC FESTIVAL.  Kicking off Thursday 8/15, the mountainside festival at Scranton, PA’s Toyota Pavilion at Montage Mountain Water Park features four days of music from such acclaimed artists as the ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND (two nights), BOB WEIR & RATDOG (two nights, plus Bob Weir solo acoustic), THE BLACK CROWES, GRACE POTTER & THE NOCTURNALS and GOV’T MULE and as well as nearly 20 other performers on two stages.
