Duane Betts - Isle Of Hope

Out Now on Sun Records

Duane Betts brings a coastal chill to his new album Isle of Hope, his first on Sun Records. Recorded in the Georgia lowcountry with GRAMMY-award winning producer Dave Cobb, Betts brings his unique blend of Southern rock and roots riffs to tracks co-written by Duane with Stoll Vaughan. Among all the fire on the fretboards is an intimate look at Duane’s sobriety, the loss of his father (Dickey Betts of the Allman Brothers), and his decades on the road touring in the rock and jam band worlds.
