Second Helping: The Original Lynyrd Skynyrd Tribute Band is the world's original and longest-running tribute to the legendary Southern rockers. Since 1988, they've been proudly endorsed by members of Lynyrd Skynyrd and remain deeply connected to the band's legacy. Born out of a friendship with several Skynyrd members, Second Helping was formed at a Lynyrd Skynyrd rehearsal in 1988. Many of the original players worked with them on specific parts--most notably guitar greats Ed King and Randall Hall--with two Second Helping members even performing in Hall's own band. Delivering a powerful, authentic concert experience, Second Helping celebrates the spirit of Southern rock with unforgettable performances of classics like "Sweet Home Alabama," "Free Bird," "Gimme Three Steps," "Simple Man," and "That Smell."
