(hennemusic) A trailer has surfaced ahead of the theatrical release of the full-length feature documentary "Gregg Allman: The Music of My Soul."

Produced by Subtext, in association with Rolling Stone Films, the film - directed by Grammy and Golden Globe Award-winning filmmaker James Keach - explores the life and work of Gregg Allman, one of the most distinctive voices in American music and, as co-founder and frontman of the Allman Brothers Band, a groundbreaking architect of Southern rock.

The project traces Gregg's journey from a childhood scarred by his father's murder to the heart of a generation-defining sound with the Allman Brothers Band; the film uses electrifying performances and archival recordings to reveal how his music, his headline-making marriage to Cher, and his restless pursuit of authenticity affirmed him not just as a rock legend, but as a lasting cultural force.

Told through archival recordings, candid interviews, and electric live performances, the film weaves an intimate portrait of Allman, honestly reflecting on the death of his brother and bandmate Duane, his battles with addiction, and the personal demons that shaped both his life and his blues-driven music.

The documentary is anchored by rarely seen concert footage that captures the Allman Brothers Band at their creative peak, offering audiences an immersive, front-row view of one of rock 'n' roll's most powerful live outfits.
