Lynyrd Skynyrd To Release Last Of A Dying Breed In August

August 21 will mark the release of Last of a Dying Breed from southern rock giants, Lynyrd Skynyrd. It will be their first studio album since 2009′s God & Guns. The album, which was announced on their website, was produced by veteran Bob Marlette, who has also worked with Neal Schon, Black Sabbath and Alice Cooper.

“It was great to get back in the studio with Bob for this new album,” guitarist Gary Rossington said. “We kind of went back old school this time. 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 will embark on a world tour beginning May 4 in Baltimore, and concluding on August 31 in Memphis
