We’re joined by true rock royalty — Donnie and Johnny Van Zant! 🎤
Donnie (co-founder of .38 Special) and Johnny (lead singer of Lynyrd Skynyrd) have traded in stadium anthems for a heartfelt, faith-driven project: their first Christian album, Always Look Up.
In this conversation, we dive deep into:
✨ How COVID-19 and faith led them to create a Christian record
✨ The songwriting process (spoiler: it started with a broomstick!)
✨ Their Southern rock sound meeting Gospel themes
✨ Favorite tracks like Jesus Christ, I’ll Rise, and Speak His Name
✨ Stories of how this album is already touching lives — including a woman saved from the brink of suicide ❤️
✨ Their personal faith journeys from the rock scene to now
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when rock and faith collide, this is one powerful (and heartfelt) conversation you don’t want to miss. 🎶🙌
