He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2006. Pyle currently lives in Asheville, North Carolina, playing solo and with various musicians, including previous members of Lynyrd Skynyrd and Lynyrd Skynyrd tribute bands. He also plays with his own band, "The Artimus Pyle Band", which released "Artimus Venomous" in 2007 on Storm Dog Records Group/Cleopatra Records. He also appears with "The Floyd County Rangers.
