Country Trio Announces Nearly 20 Live Concert Dates for 2021
Richie McDonald, lead singer of multi-platinum selling country group Lonestar, has announced his departure from the band. Today McDonald revealed his exit and his plans to tour full-time with The Frontmen of Country— comprised of McDonald, former lead singer of Little Texas, Tim Rushlow, and lead singer of Restless Heart, Larry Stewart. The trio has signed an exclusive deal with The Kinkead Entertainment Agency for live concert bookings. “I’ve been with Lonestar for almost 30 years and have enjoyed my time with the guys,” explains McDonald. "With everything that has happened in the past year, it has made me think about other things I want to do in life. This opportunity with The Frontmen came up and I’ve decided to go a new direction. I’ve always enjoyed performing with Tim and Larry and I can’t wait to see how this new chapter unfolds. I want to thank my bandmates Dean, Keech and Michael for a great run. I wish them nothing but the best.” As The Frontmen, the three lead singers have performed together many times through the years. Restless Heart’s Larry Stewart is thrilled about hitting the road with McDonald and Rushlow, backed by a full band for the first time. "The three of us have proudly performed for our country on battleships USS Bush and USS Truman, in the Middle East and even the Presidential Inauguration,” says Stewart. "Touring the United States for country music fans coast-to-coast, backed by a world class band, performing hit after hit, will be exciting and something we have never done together. I’m looking forward to hitting the stage with these two great singers!” “We are ecstatic to have this amazing opportunity to bring this show on the road and celebrate the music of three of the biggest bands from the '90s in one night,” adds Rushlow. "I don’t know that I have ever seen three lead vocalists on a tour like this. There’s a common thread that runs through our collective catalog of hits and it will be awesome to sing them all in one concert event!” Today the trio’s new booking agency, The Kinkead Entertainment Agency, revealed nearly 20 live concert dates set to take place throughout 2021. The tour kicks-off on April 16 at the Choctaw Casino Resort in Grant, OK. Additional 2021 tour stops include Flint, MI; Bristol, VA; Springfield, MO; Tracy, CA; Green Bay, WI; Milwaukee, WI; Tonawanda, NY and several dates in Canada. "I’m so excited to be involved with The Frontmen of Country, featuring Richie McDonald, Larry Stewart and Tim Rushlow,” notes The Kinkead Entertainment Agency CEO Bob Kinkead. "I’ve seen these gentlemen perform and they still have incredible vocals and live performance energy. They have been working together as a team of singers for over a decade and now are finally going to work full-time throughout the summer, fall and winter to bring their 30 Number One collective hits to the fans.” For live concert booking inquiries, contact: Bob Kinkead - CEO - bkinkead@kinkeadentertainment.com Greg Scott - VP/Head of Live Performance - gscott@kinkeadentertainment.com The Frontmen of Country 2021 Tour Dates: April 16 - Grant, OK - Choctaw Casino Resort April 17 - Sonora, TX - JL Bar Ranch and Resort Sept 18 - Orange Park, FL - Thrasher-Horne Center for the Arts Sept 25 - Farmington, NM - Farmington Civic Center Theatre Sept 27 - Yakima, WA - Central Washington State Fair Oct 1 - Flint, MI - The Capitol Theatre Oct 2 - Bristol, VA - The Cameo Theater Oct 8 - Eau Claire, WI - Pablo Center at the Confluence Oct 9 - Springfield, MO - Gillioz Theatre Oct 23 - Tracy, CA - Grand Theatre Center for the Arts Oct 29 - Buda, TX - Buck's Backyard Oct 30 - Hinton, OK - Sugar Creek Casino Nov 4 - Whitecap, SK - Dakota Dunes Casino Nov 5 - Calgary, AB - The Grey Eagle Event Centre Nov 6 - Rama, ON - Casino Rama Entertainment Centre Nov 11 - Green Bay, WI - Meyer Theatre Nov 12 - Milwaukee, WI - The Northern Lights Theater Nov 13 - Tonawanda, NY - Riviera Theatre and Performing Arts Center Nov 14 - Warsaw, IN - Wagon Wheel Theatre About The Frontmen of Country The Frontmen features three singers who were THE voices of three of the Top Country bands of the '90s: Richie McDonald of Lonestar, Larry Stewart of Restless Heart and Tim Rushlow, formerly of Little Texas.
