Blackfoot Release 'Southern Native' Video

(The Blues) Blackfoot have released a video for their track Southern Native. It's the title track from their upcoming album, due out on Friday (August 5). It's their first record since 1994's After The Reign.

Lynyrd Skynyrd lead guitarist and Blackfoot co-founder Rickey Medlocke has also recruited a new-look lineup - guitarist and vocalist Tim Rossi, guitarist Rick Krasowski, bassist Brian Carpenter and drummer Matt Anastasi. He'll make guest appearances at some of their stage shows later in the year.

Medlocke had the following to say: "This record is head-to-head old school meets new school - classic to new rock for a brand new generation. Turn it up loud!"

Rossi added: "Rickey bridged the generations by having his grandfather Shorty Medlocke play on those early Blackfoot records, so having Rickey play slide and other guitar with us on this record bridges the modern gap. It's a full-circle kind of thing." Watch the video here.
