Molly Hatchet Announce Battleground Album, Tour With New Singer
Southern rock icons Molly Hatchet have announced that they will be releasing their new live album "Battleground" on November 29th and will be launching a tour with their new frontman.
The new live record was captured during shows in Pratteln, Switzerland, in Ludwigsburg, Germany, and Molly Hatchet's 40th anniversary tour of the United States.
The band will be supporting the new release with U.S. and European tours that will feature new singer Jimmy Elkins, filling the shoes left by Phil McCormack, who passed away back in in April.
"To us it was the logical next step to ask Jimmy to become our new vocalist," Ingram explains. "You can tell that he has the Southern rock gene and is a perfect match for Molly Hatchet, not only on a musical but also on a personal level."
