AccuRadio Song Of The Day-Warren Haynes


Artist:Warren Haynes

Song:Fire in the Kitchen

Album:Tales of Ordinary Madness


Guitarist Warren Haynes is best known as a member of the Allman Brothers Band and the leader of Gov't Mule. But he also tours and records as Warren Haynes. He was born Apr. 6, 1960 in Asheville, NC. He started playing guitar at age 12. Though Haynes says that Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton are influences, his biggest influence is Duane Allman. Haynes started out playing with David Allan Coe and then The Nighthawks. Then he got the call to do backup vocals on a 1987 Dickey Betts album. Betts hired Haynes for his band. Then when the Allman Brothers Band reformed in 1989, Haynes was brought in for that. Fire in the Kitchen is from Haynes' 1993 debut album Tales of Ordinary Madness. The album was produced by Allman Brothers Band keyboard player Chuck Leavell. Leavell played keyboards on the album. Other musicians were Lincoln Schliefer of The Levon Helm Band on bass, Steve Holley of Wings on drums and Marc Quinones of the Allman Brothers Band on percussion. This album is available as a budget CD. Since then Haynes has released mostly live albums. Of course he formed Gov't. Mule in 1994 and he has also toured with The Grateful Dead alumni band The Dead. Haynes continues to tour with his own band. Here's Warren Haynes performing Fire in the Kitchen at The Moody Theater in Austin, TX. from the 2012 live DVD. The entire concert can be streamed on YouTube.
