Kings of Leon's Nathan Followill welcomes baby girl

Kings of Leon dummer Nathan Followill and his wife, singer-songwriter Jessie Baylin, welcomed their first child together on Wednesday.

Violet Marlowe Followill was born at 4:01 p.m. in Nasvhille, a spokesman says. She was 7 pounds, 13 ounces.

Marlowe is the latest addition to the Followill family band. Nathan Followill's brother Caleb and cousin Matthew also have children.

The baby comes before what promises to be a busy 2013 for Kings of Leon. The Nashville, Tenn.-based band has been working on new music for an album that's expected to be released next year. Baylin released her third album, "Little Spark," earlier this year.

The couple has been married since 2009.
