тАЬIтАЩve been with Lonestar for almost 30 years and have enjoyed my time with the guys,тАЭ explains McDonald. "With everything that has happened in the past year, it has made me think about other things I want to do in life. This opportunity with The Frontmen came up and IтАЩve decided to go a new direction. IтАЩve always enjoyed performing with Tim and Larry and I canтАЩt wait to see how this new chapter unfolds. I want to thank my bandmates Dean, Keech and Michael for a great run. I wish them nothing but the best.тАЭ

As The Frontmen, the three lead singers have performed together many times through the years. Restless HeartтАЩs Larry Stewart is thrilled about hitting the road with McDonald and Rushlow, backed by a full band for the first time.

"The three of us have proudly performed for our country on battleships USS Bush and USS Truman, in the Middle East and even the Presidential Inauguration,тАЭ says Stewart. "Touring the United States for country music fans coast-to-coast, backed by a world class band, performing hit after hit, will be exciting and something we have never done together. IтАЩm looking forward to hitting the stage with these two great singers!тАЭ

тАЬWe are ecstatic to have this amazing opportunity to bring this show on the road and celebrate the music of three of the biggest bands from the '90s in one night,тАЭ adds Rushlow. "I donтАЩt know that I have ever seen three lead vocalists on a tour like this. ThereтАЩs a common thread that runs through our collective catalog of hits and it will be awesome to sing them all in one concert event!тАЭ
