About LANCOLANCO

has paved the course for critical acclaim with the success of their 2x Platinum single “Greatest Love Story” which became a multi-week chart topper. Following the release of their No. 1 selling debut album Hallelujah Nights, which has over 560 million streams, both moments were historical in Country music as Lancaster became the first artist in 10 years to have a No. 1 on the chart solely written by that artist, while LANCO served as the first Country group in a decade to appear at the top of the Billboard Country albums chart with a debut album. As they are currently in the studio once again with producer Jay Joyce, LANCO continues to prep their upcoming sophomore album after the release of its lead track “Rival,” written by frontman Brandon Lancaster and drummer Tripp Howell. LANCO recently earned their first award as ACM New Group of the Year and has garnered additional nominations from the CMT, CMA, AMA and iHeart Awards, while Lancaster became the first member of a group to ever win NSAI’s Songwriter/Artist of the Year award.

About Randy Rogers Band

In a business where bands come and go and membership is often are volving door, the Randy Rogers Band has been making music and touring together for more than 18 years. The culmination of the six-member band’s musical journey thus far can be heard on its latest album Hellbent (April 26, 2019). The 11 tracks were produced by Dave Cobb (Chris Stapleton, Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell) and recorded at the legendary RCA Studio A in Nashville, Tennessee. Randy and the band have become skilled at capturing a unique live energy and passion on their albums and Hellbentis the perfect example. So, what keeps a band together for nearly two decades? Randy cites the blend of the members’ distinctive personalities, represented in a dynamic musical chemistry that has taken the Randy Rogers Band beyond the competitive music scene in their native Texas, to a national fan base with sold out shows across the country.

About Parker McCollum

A singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and dedicated road warrior, Parker McCollum began building a following in his native Texas with 2015’s The Limestone Kid. The album track “Meet You in The Middle” became a hit on Texas’ regional radio chart —no small feat for an independent, 22-year-old musician —but it was the album’s widely-acclaimed follow-up, Probably Wrong, that helped Parker find national success. Born in Conroe, Texas, and currently based in Austin, the now 27-year-old bridges the gap between Texas’ homegrown music scene and Nashville’s country-industry headquarters. His songwriting earned him a publishing deal with Warner/Chappell Nashville in May 2018 and a recording deal with Universal Music Group Nashville in June 2019. “Pretty Heart,” co-written by McCollum and Randy Montana and produced by Jon Randall, is Parker’s first song release since signing with MCA Nashville.
