Skynyrd Confirm New Album

They've also recruited the Black Crowes' bassist

Published 3rd May 2012

Last Of A Dying Breed will be released in the US on 21 August and it's a follow-up to 2009's God & Guns album.

"We kind of went back old school this time," guitarist Gary Rossington said in a statement. "All of us playing together in the studio as a band, tracking songs and creating licks. We had a lot of fun and the music really flowed for us, so that's when you know you are on to something good. We can't wait to let the fans hear these songs and play 'em live."

The band has added Black Crowes bass player Johnny Colt to their ranks. Colt replaces Donald 'Ean' Evan, who sadly passed away in 2009.
