Lynyrd Skynyrd at Bank of NH Pavilion

Lynyrd Skynyrd is a definitive blues-rock band that exudes a rebellious and outlaw-ish image. These rockers from Jacksonville, Florida, have sold over 28 million records and were inducted into the Rock ‘N Roll Hall of Fame in March 2006. And even with five decades behind them, the band has no signs of slowing down and still pursues their relentless touring. Some may remember the band during the ‘70s when they were at their prime. Having released hits, such as “Sweet Home Alabama,” “Simple Man,” and “What’s Your Name,” the band has proven that time is irrelevant because their songs continue to enjoy radio airplay and millions of digital streams.

Lynyrd Skynyrd was initially on the last trek of their career called Street Survivors Farewell Tour in 2018. However, due to the 2019 pandemic, the band had to rethink everything. Frontman Johnny Vant Zant explained why the band had changed their minds in a statement. “We were two shows into the end of the three-year plan for the farewell tour when the virus hit and everything were just gone.” Van Zant added, “Once something is taken away from you – music and touring, in our case – you truly realize how important it is and such a part of your life. Music is a great healer, and that’s what we all turn to when things are good or bad. A Skynyrd show is a family affair, and we want these dates to help heal our fans as much as ourselves."
