Lynyrd Skynyrd Teases New Album with Unreleased Tracks by Gary Rossington

Lynyrd Skynyrd has exciting news for their fans. Singer Johnny Van Zant revealed that the band has unreleased tracks co-written by the late guitarist Gary Rossington. The band discovered these songs shortly after Rossington's passing, with about 30 songs that he had worked on with Van Zant and guitarist Rickey Medlocke. They are now considering recording a new Lynyrd Skynyrd album that would include these songs to honor Rossington's legacy.

Van Zant and Medlocke discussed the possibility of creating a new album featuring Gary's songs. This potential album would be the band's first since their 2012 release, Last Of A Dyin' Breed. Lynyrd Skynyrd has previously hinted at releasing music in Rossington's memory, with plans for a tribute album in the works. Medlocke expressed his excitement about the upcoming project and the opportunity to pay homage to Gary through their music.

Fans can look forward to hearing some of the unreleased tracks live next year as Lynyrd Skynyrd is gearing up for a tour with Foreigner. The band's dedication to preserving Rossington's musical contributions and continuing their legacy is evident in their plans for new music and live performances.
