Biography
Though their name might lead you to believe that Lonestar was formed in Texas, the quintet actually hails from Tennessee. Originally called Texassee, the band features Richie Mcdonald (lead vocals, guitar), John Rich (lead vocals, bass), Michael Britt (lead guitar, background vocals), Dean Sams (keyboard, background vocals), and Keech Rainwater (drums). All the members are in fact Texas natives -- they just formed in Tennessee in 1992.
Read More...In 1993, Lonestar played their first concert at Backstage Pass in Nashville in January of 1993. A booking agent happened to hear the show. Impressed, he added the group to his roster, and the group headed out on the road. Over the next two years, they played nearly 500 shows. In 1994, the group landed a record contract with BNA Records. The following year they released their eponymous debut, which spawned the Top Ten hit "Tequila Talkin'." Crazy Nights followed in 1997, and two years later Lonestar returned with Lonely Grill, which featured the hit "Amazed." Their seasonal effort This Is the Time: The Christmas Album followed in fall 2000, and I'm Already There appeared the next spring. They released three more records after their 2003 greatest-hits compilation From There to Here: Greatest Hits: 2004's Let's Be Us Again, 2005's Coming Home, and 2006's Why There are Mountains. In late 2007, the band announced that Cody Collins had replaced Richie Mcdonald as lead singer, and that their next album, My Christmas List, would be distributed by Cracker Barrel restaurants. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

He had to wipe away a tear from his eye

What About Now - (3:30) - 10,969 playsLyricsThe sign in the window said, "For sale or trade"

For a four hundred horsepower jukebox on wheels
And that road rolls out like a welcome mat

Touched down in the land of the delta blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
