38 Special is an American rock band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, in 1974 by singer-guitarists Donald Newton “Donnie” Van Zant and Richard Donald “Don” Barnes. 50 years together. 20 million albums sold. More than 15 albums of guitar-driven southern rock, stacked high with hits like “Hold On Loosely,” “Caught Up In You,” “If I’d Been The One,” “Back Where You Belong,” and “Second Chance.” 38 Special is proof that there’s strength in numbers.
The band’s first studio album in more than 20 years, “Milestone“ showcases a group of road warriors with plenty of miles left in the tank. Fueled up on snarling guitars, anthemic melodies, and the desire to break new ground, they update their sound for the 2020s, bridging the gap between past and present without forgetting their rock & roll roots.
