The Frontmen: Self-titled Debut Album Review

The Frontmen’s self-titled debut album is officially out now, March 22nd on all streaming platforms. Listen to the brand new record here!

Last year, three of ’90s country’s most recognizable voices combined their talents to form a new trio called The Frontmen. Together, Richie McDonald (Lonestar), Tim Rushlow (Little Texas), and Larry Stewart (Restless Heart), reimagine their iconic classics and give fans more music that pays homage to the 90s country decade. Today, their debut self-titled album is officially here!

“It’s super cool to release brand new music as a full album” shared Stewart in recent press release.”I’m so excited about this music, these songs and how this project represents the three of us so perfectly.” Rushlow added, “It feels quite surreal to finally let the world in on what we have been cooking in the kitchen with The Frontmen. For 14 years playing select shows at home and overseas for our men and women in uniform, it’s time to see what the world thinks of us! I am more proud of this record with Larry and Richie than any music I have ever been involved in making.”

The debut record features six previously released songs off the EP Familiar Faces and six new songs. Amongst some of the released songs are The Footmen Editions of classic country songs, “I’ll Still Be Loving You,” “Amazed,” and “God Blessed Texas.” On both “I’ll Still Be Loving You” and “Amazed” The Frontmen breathe new life into the already classic songs. On “God Blessed Texas,” they prime a song that is fun and made for the live show. High-energy and uptempo, the song is hard not to sing and dance along to, even after just one listen.

“I Need You” is a familiar mid-tempo song that pays homage to the early 00’s country landscape that we all still feel nostalgic about. On “It Was Always You,” The Frontmen bring their iconic voices to centerstage. The song feels reminiscent and like coming home upon listening. It also feels stage-ready, clearly something that The Frontmen seemingly know a thing or two about. Additionally, “Left Their Mark” tells a poignant story. It touches the edges of sacrifice, losing someone you love, and the incredible military men and women who put their lives on the line each and everyday for all of us.

On “I Need You,” a familiar mid-tempo song, the trio pay homage to the early 00’s country landscape that we all still feel nostalgic for. Similarly on “It Was Always You” and “Left Their Mark,” The Frontmen show off their story-telling prowess. The latter song touches the edges of sacrifice, losing someone you love, and the incredible military men and women who put their lives on the line each and everyday for all of us.

Amongst the new songs are songs like “The Radio Played,” Beatles and Eagles,” and “Should’ve Run Out of Angels.” On the former, The Frontmen lean into the nostalgia of it all. The song feels like the perfect summer-ready tune, primed for radio. “Beatles and Eagles,” while more melancholy in nature also has that impressive nostalgic quality to it. The record ends with an appropriately-titled song, “Goodbye Beautiful Goodbye,” that truly speak to The Frontmen’s one-of-a-kind talent.

Nostalgia is a common thread woven throughout the entire record. The Frontmen have found a way to both modernize their sound, while also bringing every element country music fans have always loved from the 90s and early ’00s. Their debut album is as impressive as ever!

The Frontmen Share New Releases After Inking Deal with BMG

The Frontmen are officially sharing two new releases, “Amazed (The Frontmen Edition)” and “Left Their Mark” out now, May 26th, on all streaming platforms. Listen to the music below.

Back in March, The Frontmen officially signed with BMG/BBR Music Group. The trio comprised of Richie McDonald (formerly of Lonestar), Tim Rushlow (formerly of Little Texas) and Larry Stewart (Restless Heart), are absolute veterans in the country music industry. Combining their talents into an exciting act is exactly what we all needed. Today, The Frontmen release two new songs, a new rendition of the popular Lonestar song, “Amazed” and an original called, “Left Their Mark.”

On their rendition of “Amazed,” the singers combine their incredible vocals to create an up-leveled version of the already iconic song. On “Left Their Mark,” The Frontmen continue to bring heart and vocals to their music. Like “Amazed,” “Left Their Mark” tells a poignant story. It touches the edges of sacrifice, losing someone you love, and the incredible military men and women who put their lives on the line each and everyday for all of us.

“There goes someone with lots of friends // A family who could depend on them // through thick and thin // I can tell by the tears in their eyes, what they must of meant to all their lives // And I thought, as I watched that goodbye parade unfurl // There goes someone who touched some hearts and left their mark on the world”

The Frontmen are pure talents. No matter how they choose to take their career, they clearly know exactly what kind of music they want to gift to the world. Their releases are the perfect re-introduction to each of their talents.
