LYNYRD SKYNYRD is the definitive powerhouse of Southern rock, originally formed in Jacksonville FL in 1964. They stand as one of the most commercially successful rock bands in history, accumulating over 78 million albums sold worldwide. Celebrated for popularizing the genre’s distinct triple-guitar attack, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees are globally renowned for blue-collar rock anthems like “Sweet Home Alabama” and the legendary masterpiece “Free Bird.” Despite enduring a devastating 1977 plane crash that claimed the lives of front-man Ronnie Van Zant and other members, the band’s musical legacy perseveres as they continue to pack arenas worldwide—most recently co-headlining the massive 2026 Double Trouble Double Vision Tour alongside Foreigner.
