“We didn’t want to mess with ‘Amazed’ and ‘I’m Already There,’” says guitarist Michael Britt. “Those songs belong to the fans, and we can’t change those because they’ve heard those songs so many times. They’ve been a part of people’s lives in weddings and things like that, so we didn’t want to change those. Drew made this comment to me, ‘They’re not our songs anymore. They are our fan’s songs, and he’s right.”
Re-recording songs that fans have loved for years can be a tricky proposition, but TEN to 1 strikes the perfect balance between fresh and familiar. It was a labor of love for Lonestar’s keyboardist Dean Sams, drummer Keech Rainwater, guitar virtuoso Michael Britt, and lead vocalist Drew Womack.
Having just celebrated their 30th anniversary in 2022, Lonestar achieved a bucket list moment last Friday (March 3) as they headlined Nashville’s famed Ryman Auditorium for the first time, performing to an audience that packed the venue wall-to-wall, singing along to hit-after-hit. “After 30 years together, a dream finally came true for me and my bandmates in Lonestar,” shares founding member Dean Sams. “We packed out the infamous Ryman Auditorium on March 3 for our first headline show there ever! Not to mention country’s biggest star Morgan Wallen competing with us doing a free show for fans at Bridgestone. What an iconic night for us… country music is alive and well! Thank you to everyone that came out on this special night!”
After wrapping up their most successful touring year ever last year, Lonestar continues to maintain a busy tour schedule and has hit the road for their national headlining “TEN To 1” Tour.
