NASHVILLE, TN (November 14, 2024) — Country superstars LONESTAR, celebrated for 10 No. 1 singles and countless awards, are set to release their take on P!NK’s powerhouse anthem “Try” on Tuesday, November 19. The spirited track marks the third single from their upcoming EP, Iconic, Vol. 1, dropping January 24, which pays tribute to legendary female artists, including Adele, P!NK, Cyndi Lauper, Eurythmics, and Fleetwood Mac. 

Lead vocalist Drew Womack shares that for this EP, Lonestar opted to cover pop and rock tracks rather than their usual country tunes, aiming to surprise their fans with something fresh. He’s particularly excited for listeners to experience their rendition of P!NK’s “Try.” Reflecting on the track, Womack says, “Once I found where I was going to land on that song, it just kind of took a life of its own.”

The renowned, multi-award-winning country group — featuring Michael Britt (guitar), Keech Rainwater (drums), Dean Sams (keyboard), and Drew Womack (vocals) — turned up the nostalgia with the project’s previous single releases of “You Make Loving Fun,” Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 hit, released on March 1, and “Here Comes The Rain Again,” their powerful take on the Eurythmics’ classic on May 29. MusicRow applauded Lonestar’s “You Make Loving Fun” as “a marvelous reinterpretation that turns a classic inside out, splendidly,” while American Songwriter declared, “Lonestar pumped it up and added their own country-rock flair, turning it into a completely different vibe… loud, fun, and celebratory.” Taste Of Country added to the praise, calling it a “stellar Fleetwood Mac cover.”

When recording a cover album there is always that delicate balance between giving fans what they love about a song yet offering them something new. Lonestar successfully walks that musical tightrope on Iconic, Vol. 1.  “There were certain parts where we were like, ‘Alright we have to stay true to this section of the song because people will expect that,’” Dean Sams, who also produced the EP, admits. “So, there were certain parts of every song that we tried to remain true to the original, but always keeping in mind we’re Lonestar and if we were going to do it exactly like the original artist, would there really be a point in doing it?”

Though they initially began the recording process by working in their respective studios and sending the files back and forth to each other, they ultimately decided to all get together in one studio and create the EP together. That camaraderie and creative energy can be felt throughout Iconic, Vol. 1. “There’s just something magical when we are in a room together that I think elevates the songs and creates the Lonestar sound,” Sams continues.

Over the course of their 30 plus years together, Lonestar has scored 10 No. 1 singles, including “Amazed,” — spending nine weeks at No. 1, becoming a huge crossover hit, climbing to No. 1 on Billboard Hot 100 — and “I’m Already There,” which held steady at the top for six weeks. In 2023, they took fans down memory by re-recording their No. 1 hits on the album TEN to 1. 

Lonestar keeps the momentum going with a packed tour schedule through 2025. “We’ve had the two biggest touring years of our career. It feels new again and the fans have just given us a rebirth. We are more energized. We are better players and singers,” Sams concludes.
