38 Special announces new album after more than 20 years

After 21 years, the influential Southern Rock band 38 Special will release a new studio album. Called "Milestone", the new record will be out next September 19 and it's their first work in the studio since "Drivetrain", released in 2004. The first single "All I Haven't Said" is already available. The band's singer and co-founder Don Barnes talked about the album, saying: "After all this time, we wanted to create a more modern 38 Special album. This is a fresh, updated approach to the sound we've been making together for so long. Why not make a big statement after all these years? When you're reintroducing yourself to the world, 'good enough' doesn't work anymore. If you're gonna do it, you might as well go big." "We've had people say, 'Oh, those guys are still around?" Barnes says. "We still hit 100 cities every year and we bring a high-energy party to the people every time we're onstage. We don't phone it in. We don’t slack up, we stack up. So Much So Right is for anyone who thinks we're too old to keep doing this. It'll completely change their perspective." he said. Nowadays the band is formed by the original members Don Barnes (Vocals, guitar) and Bobby Capps (Keyboards), who are accompanied by Gary Moffatt (Drums - Since 1996), Barry Dunaway (Bass - since 2014) and Jerry Riggs (Guitar - Since 2019).
