An Update on Jimmy
Jan. 8, 2026, 8:58 p.m.
Shortly before the New Year, Widespread Panic lead guitarist Jimmy Herring informed his bandmates that the illness he had been treated for during the band’s 2024 hiatus had returned and that he would be stepping away from the band temporarily to focus on his health. With the band’s full support and encouragement, Jimmy and his bandmates are confident that Nick Johnson is the right person to step in during this time, having played with Duane in Col Bruce’s band, with Randall Bramblett, and with Ansley and the Hold. Jimmy, his family, and the band continue to be so grateful for the well-wishing and kindness that have been offered while Jimmy continues to navigate the road to full recovery.
