Zac Brown Band founding member John Driskell Hopkins had "tough news to share" on Friday: He announced that he's been diagnosed with ALS, which is also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease.
Frontman Zac Brown spoke of the band's work with the foundation in their video message. "The technology and research surrounding ALS treatments has been advancing, but we still don't have a cure. Thanks so much for your prayers and support in helping us cure ALS," he said.
