Turn it up!"
And with those words musical history was set in motion! FreeBird is The Ultimate Lynyrd Skynyrd Experience - period. The band has decades of professional experience, including world tours, record label deals, and thousands of shows. As a band FreeBird's members have been in love with the music since childhood, and play these songs with the same passion and intensity of Lynyrd Skynyrd themselves. If you saw the original line up in the 1970s you will love the energy and accuracy, if you're just discovering the music for the first time, you'll be blown away by hit after hit of incredible music, and amazing players.
Vocalist Ken Mauldin masterfully channels the essence of Ronnie Van Zant’s vocals and stage persona, guiding the band and players through incredible solos, song after song. Guitarists Matt Chenoweth (Ed King/Steve Gains), John Hopkins (Allen Collins) and Jeff Langston (Gary Rossington) play their roles with such explosive energy and skill you'd think you were at a show in the 1970s. Russell Ingram on drums and Jeff Brashears on bass nail down the groove and power of Artimus Pyle/Bob Burns and Leon Wilkeson rhythm section, while keyboardist Joey Huffman (formerly with Lynyrd Skynyrd, Hank Jr, Soul Asylum, Kieth Richards, Mick Jagger, and more) gracefully adds in Billy Powell's keyboards for a full and amazing rendition of one of the greatest bands that ever recorded and toured.
FreeBird brings all the magic of the music to life in a way only matched by the original band. You'll dance, you'll sing, you will have the time of your life - again! Get ready for a full helping of Southern Fried Rock N Roll by the best Skynyrd tribute band around - Fly High FreeBird Nation!
