John Driskell Hopkins (Hop) is most well known as a founding member, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter of the GRAMMY Award-winning Zac Brown Band. When Hop is off the road with Zac Brown Band, he is busy writing and producing in his Brighter Shade Studios in Atlanta. Hop loves Christmas and is releasing his fourth holiday album in 2023 titled Let’s Get Frosty!

Hop started doing research for this record that would capture the smooth sounds of the 70’s and 80’s and he enlisted Yacht Rock Revue. Additional features on the album include Amos Lee and Debby Boone. Let’s Get Frosty! will give the holiday season a breath of fresh sea-breeze.

While in the middle of producing the record, in December 2021, Hopkins was diagnosed with ALS. In May 2022, John announced his diagnosis to the public and he and his wife, Jennifer, launched Hop On A Cure Foundation. Hop On A Cure is committed to supporting research to prevent, reverse, and cure ALS while raising awareness, building a compassionate community, and unleashing the healing power of hope.  Hopkins continues to be active in Zac Brown Band, who just announced their 2024 US tour with Kenny Chesney.
