Q&A with Vaylor and Melody Trucks (Brother & Sister), the true music spirit of The Allman Brothers Band

"Their music hits on so many levels and, because of that, can reach so many.

"Music born from adversity, has a whole different meaning than if you’re someone who grew privileged or sheltered. I’d say that still holds true today. Listen to jazz. Listen to blues. Listen to rap. Listen to hip hop. Then listen to pop. There’s an edge to some. There’s a darkness to some. And there’s a lightness in others."…
