Keith touring with Lynyrd Skynyrd
Bass player extraordinaire, Keith Christopher, is now playing with Lynyrd Skynyrd. Keith has played on all of Tony's recordings, starting with "It's a blues thing", and including "The Thunderhawks" and "Tony Sarno" (self-titled). Keith has toured Australia with Tony, and they've done gigs together all over the United States.
Keith Christopher is making Skynyrd's farewell tour a really special event, as he's bringing great new energy to that classic American rock band.
