Zakk Wylde Unveils Mystical ‘Lost Prayer’ Music Video
Last year, legendary axeman Zakk Wylde released Book of Shadows II, a beautiful, moody acoustic album that served as the successor to the first installment of the Book of Shadows album series that began 20 years earlier. He's released another music video to support one of the album's tracks, this time for "Lost Prayer," which can be viewed above.
The song opens up with a gentle, clean-picked lick as Wylde plays one of his new signature guitars from his Wylde Audio company, the Barbarian, complete with a purple finish and vertigo detail. The video takes on a mystical quality as Zakk's iconic croon guides the peaks and valleys of "Lost Prayer." Mixed in with the group of well-dressed characters is a long-nosed, red-faced demon, who seems to wield influence over the others.
As Book of Shadows II lives on, Wylde will be busy with an assortment of other projects. His Black Sabbath cover band, Zakk Sabbath, have been touring heavily and just added three California tour dates which can be seen below. The guitarist / singer will be backed by Blasko (bass, Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Zombie) and Joey Castillo (drums, Danzig, Queens of the Stone Age).
Wylde will be taking part in the 'Experience Hendrix' tour for the third consecutive year, taking the stage alongside other guitar greats in Billy Cox, Buddy Guy, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and more as they celebrate the life and work of Jimi Hendrix. See the list of tour dates below as well.
