The tour will see the two acts hitting the road for a 22 outdoor amphitheater tour across the country with stops planned in Houston, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Boston, and New York.
Kid Rock’s latest studio album, ‘Rock ‘N Roll Jesus,’ debuted at #1 in 2007 and became the #1 selling rock album in America in 2008. Sales of the record continue to grow with 4 million albums sold worldwide to date, aided by a pair of Grammy nominations and an amazing performance on the telecast featuring his expanded 11-piece Twisted Brown Trucker Band, who will once again accompany him on tour. His next single, “Blue Jeans and a Rosary” is shipping to radio outlets now.
Ranked as one of the best-selling bands of all time by the Recording Industry Association of America and recent Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, Lynyrd Skynyrd is still going strong with 30 million albums sold to date, and over 80 performances annually. To date, the Southern anthem “Sweet Home Alabama” has passed the 2,000,000 mark in downloaded master ring tones, proving that Lynyrd Skynyrd is a major industry icon that appeals to all generations.
