Gill Landry Releases Third Solo Album (and Restarts Solo Career)

Gill Landry (a.k.a. Frank Lemon)—the singer/songwriter-guitarist born in Lake Charles, Louisiana who joined Old Crow Medicine Show when founding member Chris "Critter" Fuqua left for treatment in 2004—is apparently no longer with the group.

Landry did not appear onstage with the group in Gilford, New Hampshire as part of the Willie & Family co-headliner tour August 23, 2015—and he no longer appears in the group's line-up or main photo at their website.

I see nothing on this at the Old Crow fans site. Their Facebook page confirms what their official site says. The August 12 Wall Street Journal story on their roots shows a group shot that doesn't include Landry.

In March of 2015 he released his third album as a solo artist.

UPDATE: While I was going back through Landry's tour dates, trying to square them with Old Crow's summer dates—and not finding any cross-overs—I received an e-mail response from one of the publicity people I'd queried for news on all this. She linked me to a piece in Rock Shot entitled "Interview: Gill Landry. I’m Putting My Own Boots On And Taking A Walk" from July 23, 2015.

Apparently his leaving the group did in fact coincide with the release of his latest solo album, which is self-titled. Gill Landry is available at ATO Records online store in digital, CD, and vinyl formats.
