'Duck Dynasty' cast members news, updates: Uncle Si to drop music album soon

It has been months since "Duck Dynasty" viewers last saw the Robertson family and their popular Duck Commander business. Even as the American reality TV series ended its five-year run last March, some of the cast members are likely to remain in the entertainment scene. In fact, one of the bearded Robertson brothers, Uncle Si, is expected to release a music album with his band very soon.

Life and Style magazine was able to get an exclusive interview with the "Duck Dynasty" star recently, in which Uncle Si spilled a few details about his band's album. As reported by News Ghana, Uncle Si revealed that he finally got the time to focus on his music after 11 seasons straight of shooting "Duck Dynasty."

"I can't wait for the fans to get these songs into their hands," Uncle Si told Life and Style. In the interview, the 69-year-old Duck Commander co-manager said that the album will be out "in the near future." So far, his band has been able to record six songs. Staying true to their family's Christian values as portrayed in "Duck Dynasty," the upcoming album will tackle family and faith. Of course, the record will not be complete without showing a bit of Uncle Si's fun side.

When asked about the name of his band, Uncle Si revealed that his group will be known as "Uncle Si and the Sicotis." In a separate interview, Uncle Si jokingly said that his group needs a "paying gig," especially now that the band is here.

Country Standard Time learned that Uncle Si and the Sicotics formed in late 2016, just a few months before the final episode of "Duck Dynasty" aired. The music album, produced by Cold River Records, is expected to be released on Dec. 15. Aside from Uncle Si, his daughter-in-law Marsha Roberston helped in writing the lineup. Bridgette Tatum, the composer behind the Jason Aldean popular hit "She's Country," also has a contribution to the album.

The Uncle Si and the Sicotics' forthcoming album will be a nice combination of hip-hop, country, and Southern gospel genres. The title of the record is not yet final, but the "Duck Dynasty" cast member calls it as "Probably Crazy."
