The Allman Brothers Band, one of rock’s most acclaimed live acts and 1994 Hall Of Fame inductees will release a new double live CD March 23 on Peach/Sanctuary Records. Titled "One Way Out", it documents the band’s ‘March Madness’ run at the Beacon Theatre last year in New York City and features the 12-minute tour de force “Instrumental Illness,” for which the band has been nominated for a Grammy this year in the “Best Rock Instrumental Performance” category. "One Way Out" includes songs seen on last year’s platinum DVD "Live At The Beacon Theatre" as well as, additional live tracks from the Beacon performances.

Meanwhile, look for the Allman Brothers Band -- Gregg Allman (vocals and keyboards), Jaimoe (drums), Butch Trucks (drums and tympani), Warren Haynes (vocals, lead and slide guitar), Oteil Burbridge (bass), Marc Quiñones (congas and percussion) and Derek Trucks (slide and lead guitar)--to perform Tuesday, March 16 on “Late Night With Conan O‘Brien” in advance of this year’s “March Madness” Beacon shows beginning March 18th.

The 18-track "One Way Out" mixes Allman Brothers Band classics (among them “Dreams,” “Midnight Rider” and “Whippin’ Post”) with six songs from their critically acclaimed "Hittin’ The Note", the band’s latest studio album and their first album of new material in nine years (released last spring on Peach/Sanctuary Records). As Steve Morse noted in his Boston Globe review (3/28/03): “…one listen will convince you that the Allmans are really hitting a new peak,” while Jay Lustig raved in the Newark Star Ledger (3/16/03) “It often approaches and sometimes reaches the level of Allman recordings of yore.” Jay Babcock, writing in the LA Weekly (9/05/03) summed it up when he said: “…the general consensus is that the Allmans are stronger now than they’ve been in years; their stunning new album Hittin’ The Note certainly makes that case.”

Known as one of rock’s best live acts, the Allman Brothers Band were one of only two artists whose live albums ranked in the top 50 of Rolling Stone’s recently published list of the “500 Greatest Albums of All Time.” The Allman Brothers Band was honored for At Fillmore East (while James Brown was saluted for Live At The Apollo).

The following songs appear on the cd but not on the "Live at the Beacon Theatre" DVD:

• Every Hungry Woman
• Wasted Words
• Worried Down With The Blues
• Trouble No More
• Good Morning Little School Girl

In addition, the following songs are different performances on the CD than on the DVD:
