“Freebird” is the southern rock anthem created almost 50 years ago by Lynyrd Skynyrd, a band that got its humble start in a Westside Jacksonville home at 5419 Woodcrest Road.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The music of Lynyrd Skynyrd is widely known across the world.
People come from around the world to visit. Andy Brown and Alison Hadad traveled all the way from Britain to stay at the house. They were all decked out in their Lynyrd Skynyrd T-shirts.“We learned lots. There are lots of small facts that extra things that I didn’t know,” Brown said.They opened for the Rolling Stones at the Knebworth Festival.
Smith slowly renovated the house and a few years ago got the state of Florida to approve a historical marker that now stands in front of the house.“It’s quite the draw. I mean you come here for any length of time and you stay here and you’ll probably get two or three people every day to stop by and take pictures in front of the sign,” Smith said.
