Elijah Blue Allman, the son of Cher and legendary American rock musician Gregg Allman, was born in 1976.
His father Greg Allman was born in Nashville in 1947, and rose to prominence as a founding member of the Allman Brothers Band, recognized for their soulful Southern rock tunes such as “Ramblin’ Man” and “Whippin’ Post.”
Despite his musical success, Gregg’s life was marked by battles with addiction.
Cher and Gregg’s relationship, born amid their individual careers, brought forth Elijah but faced challenges due to Gregg’s substance issues.
Despite a distant father-son dynamic in Elijah’s early years, they later reconnected, forging a bond that led to Gregg establishing a trust fund for his son.
In 2017, Gregg’s demise left behind a musical legacy and a complex personal narrative.
His imprint on rock history endured, as did the intricate tale of reconciliation with his son—a poignant chapter interwoven with Cher’s remarkable career and family saga.
Despite the obstacles in Cher and Gregg’s journey, Elijah stands as a living testament to their enduring connection, perpetually carrying the musical legacy of his father.
