The Frontmen Ink With BMG/BBR Music Group

The Frontmen have signed with BMG/BBR Music Group.

The trio of Richie McDonald (formerly of Lonestar), Tim Rushlow (formerly of Little Texas) and Larry Stewart (Restless Heart) boasts a collective arsenal of 30 No. 1 hits and over 30 million records sold. They are set to release new music this year as well as new, re-recorded versions of their greatest hits, enlisting Mickey Jack Cones as producer.

“Tim, Larry and Richie were instantly recognizable and celebrated voices of their era, who consistently racked up Airplay and Sales success,” says Jon Loba, President of BMG Nashville. “Since the three joined forces to become The Frontmen, fans are not only continuing to celebrate their previous individual hits, but reacting passionately to their fresh, compelling and contemporary sound that while completely new, still has a warm familiarity of their instantly recognizable past. We can’t wait to reacquaint a generation of country music fans with these incredible and proven voices, while introducing them to an entirely new generation.”

The group initially began as a one-off salute to the troops, but it quickly grew into a series of tours that found the three performing for armed forces around the world. The success of the tours created a more permanent vision and The Frontmen began selling out shows from coast-to-coast, driven by a setlist that is considered the soundtrack of a generation. 

The trio has also signed with Oswald Entertainment Group for management, UTA for booking, Absolute Publicity for PR representation and Clyde Bright for business management. 

In addition to their 2023 tour dates, The Frontmen will perform on June 11 at CMA Fest on the Dr. Pepper Amp Stage.
