Lynyrd Skynyrd guitarist Ricky Medlock picked up two honors at the 14th annual Native American Music Awards on Friday.

Medlock won for Best Theme Song for "Native Colors" and for Best Long Form Film for “Homeland Nation.”

“We're so proud of his contributions & achievements! Great job Rickey!” posted the band.

The awards were presented on Friday, May 10 at the Seneca Niagara Hotel & Casino in Niagara Falls, NY.

Skynyrd are currently touring in support of their latest album, “Last Of A Dyin’ Breed.”

Next month, the band hook up with Bad Company to co-headline a US tour that takes the bands coast-to-coast for 12 dates.

Both bands celebrate significant 40th anniversaries in 2013, with Skynyrd having released their debut album on August 13, 1973 and Bad Company being formed that same year.
