One of the staples of every Peach Festival is the annual Wake Up With Warren Set on Sunday. Warren Haynes, lead guitarist and singer of Gov’t Mule among half a dozen other roles, has created a tradition of sorts with a Sunday morning acoustic set at the Peach Festival dating back to 2016.

Warren was on double duty on Sunday with kicking off the day with his Wake Up With Warren set and then closing down the day with two sets of Gov’t Mule.

Warren’s solo set this year included some Mule tunes, originals and a handful of masterful covers including Leroy Carr’s “Mean Mistreater Mama,” Van Morrison’s “And It Stoned Me” and Allman Brother’s Band’s “Melissa” among others.
