Professional career

Warren Haynes was a member of David Allan Coe's touring and recording band in 1980, when he was 20 years old. For four years, he was with Coe's band.

Haynes performed with local musicians and did session guitar and vocal duties shortly after. "Bo of a Kind, Workin" on a Full House, his third best seller of this period, was a song he co-wrote with Dennis Robbins and Bobby Boyd, which will be cut by country musician Garth Brooks on the album No Fences and remained the number one single on Billboard's Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart for twenty weeks.

Haynes and Dennis Robbins were given a call about 1988 to appear backup vocals on a Dickey Betts studio album. Following The break-up of The Allman Brothers Band, Betts, who had concentrated on his solo career, decided to add Haynes to his band as his guitarist after the session. The Dickey Betts Band formed in 1988, with Matt Abts on drums and Johnny Neel on keyboards. Haynes co-wrote the title track for Gregg Allman's solo album Just Before the Bullets Fly in the same year.

The Allman Brothers Band reunited in 1989, and Betts recruited Haynes to join the band. Neel on keyboards and Allen Woody on bass guitar were among the new participants. Haynes has since appeared on four well-received studio albums, including the gold-certified Where It All Begins (1994). Haynes appeared at Woodstock'94 for his first audience ever. In March 1997, Haynes and Woody left the company to concentrate solely on their government program, Gov't Mule. Haynes performed with The Allman Brothers Band shortly after Woody's death on August 26, 2000, along with young guitar prodigy Derek Trucks. He rejoined the band as a full-time member shortly thereafter. Haynes and Trucks announced their respective plans to leave the ABB by the end of 2014 following the band's 45th anniversary of existence, with the band announcing that they would not disband at the same time on January 8, 2014.

Haynes founded Gov't Mule in 1994 with Abts and Woody. Haynes and Woody initially split time between Gov't Mule and The Allman Brothers Band, but after The Allman Brothers' last performance at Beacon Theatre in New York on March 26, 1997, the band shifted to Gov't Mule full time. They released three albums and became well-known for their amazing live shows. Live at Roseland Ballroom, Live with a Little Help From Our Family and Mulennium; the latter two capture consecutive New Year's Eve shows; some of these performances have been released as official live recordings.

Allen Woody died unexpectedly on August 26, 2000. Following his death, a decision was taken to conclude the tour acoustically as the "Smile at Half-Mast" tour. Gov. Anton Mule released two albums (The Deep End, Volume 1 and The Deep End, Volume 2), as well as a live album/DVD (The Deepest End, Live in Concert), which features several of Woody's favorite bass players. Andy Hess (bass) and Danny Louis (keyboard/organ) were among the group's permanent members in 2003. This lineup's first studio effort, Deja Voodoo, debuted later this year, and later included an EP of newly recorded material titled Mo Voodoo. Gov.t. Mule released a dub EP titled Mighty High and a DVD titled Tale of Two Cities in 2006 and 2006, along with two full performances recorded in 2004 and 2006. The two shows on DVD chronicled Deja Voodoo Tour's debut and the last show of the High & Mighty Tour, encapsulating what was created over the past two years. Andy Hess left Gov't Mule in 2008 to pursue other causes, and Jorgen Carlsson was sent by a relative unknown. Unlikely Teen Records, Gov.t Mule's first studio album starring Carlsson, was released in 2009 on Haynes' own label, Evil Teen Records.

Mulennium, a three-disc record of a show from New Year's Eve 1999 in Atlanta, returned to the vault and premiered Mulennium. This was the first official recording of the original trio since Allen Woody's death in 2000. Little Milton, one of Haynes' guitar heroes from his youth, appeared at the festival as one of his musical heroes.

Haynes has performed and toured with many of the Grateful Dead's original members since Jerry Garcia's death in 1995. Haynes and Abts jammed onstage with Bob Weir and Rob Wasserman in a small club in 1997. On My Trail, Robert Mugge's film on Robert Johnson was filming. Phil Lesh, a 1999 singer, approached Haynes to play lead guitar and sing for his solo group Phil Lesh and Friends. He was a regular fixture in Lesh for three years and has continued to appear in occasional "friends" in the ever-changing lineup of his "friends" in subsequent years. As The Dead (remaining members of the Grateful Dead) were in need of a new guitarist, they called on Haynes to come lead and sing for the summer's "Wave That Flag Tour." He came in with them on a night, performed a solo acoustic set, and then ended the evening playing with The Allman Brothers Band and embarking on their next tour. In late 2008, he appeared lead guitar for The Dead at a benefit for then-president Barack Obama at Penn State, then touring with them in the spring of 2009.

Haynes released Tales of Ordinary Madness, his first solo album, was released in 1993 by former Allman Brother keyboardist Chuck Leavell. He toured briefly for a short time in support of various artists, including Danny Louis.

Haynes released two solo acoustic albums, The Lone EP, a series of live performances, and Live From Bonnaroo, which describes his solo appearance (part acoustic, part electric) at the 2003 Bonnaroo Music Festival. Haynes will often perform with one of his electric bands but would often take time out to do solo acoustic shows that feature a mix of well-known and rare covers as well as his own material. Warren Haynes appeared on five full length solo acoustic shows in 2004, as well as opened 23 times for The Dead and once for The Allman Brothers Band.

He has appeared on 45 song appearances and 28 concert appearances with Dave Matthews Band, including on two of the following live albums: "Cortez, the Killer," and "Jimi Thing," as well as Live at Piedmont Park, where he performed "What Would You Say";

Haynes appeared under the name Warren Haynes & Friends for the first time in 2005. Abts on drums, Dave Schools of Widespread Panic on bass, John Medeski Martin & Wood, Skerik's avant-garde sax player of bands such as Critters Buggin' and Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade were among the band's members. The group performed a variety of blues songs, including those of Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, and Gov't Mule standards. During a number of tapings of Last Call with Carson Daly in early February 2005, the band was also featured as the house band. The planned musical performance was missing during one of these tapings, so Haynes gave an acoustic interpretation of U2's "One." The song appeared on his Live from Bonnaroo album as well. Haynes covered Bob Dylan's "I Shall Be Freed" with Coheed and Cambria, as well as their song "Welcome Home," as part of an encore performance by the band in support of Neverender.

Haynes formed The Warren Haynes Band after recording Gov't Mule's By a Thread album. George Porter, Jr., on bass, Ivan Neville on keys, and Raymond Weber on drums were among the group's members. Ian McLagan, as well as vocalist Ruthie Foster and Ron Holloway on tenor sax, were among them on the keyboards, as well as singer Ruthie Foster and Ron Holloway. On December 11, 2010, the Warren Haynes Band made their debut appearance at Haynes' annual Christmas Jam in Asheville, North Carolina. The album Man in Motion was released in May 2011 and debuted in the Billboard Top 20. After the band's existence through the rest of 2011, Holloway, drummer Terence Higgins of the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, bassist Ron Johnson, keyboardist Nigel Hall, and other vocalists, including Foster, Alfreda Gerald or Alecia Chakour were among the tour's performers.

Live at The Moody Theater 2CD/DVD set out on Stax Records in April 2012. Haynes (lead vocals and guitar), Ron Holloway (bass), Terence Higgins (keyboards), and Alecia Chakour (backing vocals) were among the recording's featured performers.

Haynes has stated that his further solo ventures could take him into new arenas. "I have other plans to do as well," he says. "I'm interested in recording a singer-songwriter focused album with more acoustic instruments, a jazzy instrumental CD, and a straight-up blues record." However, these albums will have to wait until the time is correct, as Man in Motion did. Haynes has continued to write articles about a subject matter he has never touched on in the past, which he has not touched on in the past.
