About
Lonestar is an American country music group consisting of Richie McDonald (lead vocals), Michael Britt (lead guitar, background vocals), Keech Rainwater (drums), and Dean Sams (keyboards, background vocals). John Rich was also the group's bass guitarist and second lead vocalist until 1998, when he was fired from the group. He left for a solo career, before joining Big Kenny in the duo Big & Rich in 2003. Since Rich's departure, Lonestar has not had an official bass guitarist. McDonald left the band in November 2007 for a solo career before returning in 2011. In that timespan, he was replaced by former McAlyster lead singer Cody Collins.

Lonestar first charted on Hot Country Songs in late 1995. Nine of the band's singles reached number 1 on this chart: "No News", "Come Cryin' to Me", "Amazed", "Smile", "What About Now", "Tell Her", "I'm Already There", "My Front Porch Looking In", and "Mr. Mom", with nine more reaching Top 10 on the same chart. "Amazed" also charted at number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the first song to do so since "Islands in the Stream" in 1983; both "Amazed" and "My Front Porch Looking In" were the top country songs of 1999 and 2003, respectively, on Billboard Year-End. The group recorded seven albums and a greatest hits package for BNA Records, and an eighth album for Saguaro Road. Three of their albums have been certified gold, while three more have been certified platinum or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America.
