Country superstars Lonestar celebrate holidays at Rialto Square Theatre

Celebrate the holidays with country music superstars Lonestar, as the band’s “Christmas & Hits” show comes to the Rialto Square Theatre in downtown Joliet Sunday, Dec. 22.

On the band’s forthcoming TEN to 1 record, the award-winning band Lonestar— Dean Sams (keyboards, acoustic guitar, background vocals), Michael Britt (lead guitarist, background vocals ), Keech Rainwater (drums) and Drew Womack (lead vocals, guitar)—are taking a fresh look at all 10 of their chart-topping country songs.

This streak started in 1996 with the band’s second single, the rock-edged “No News,” and continued with the following year’s “Come Cryin' to Me” and “Everything’s Changed.” The band’s quadruple-platinum 1999 album Lonely Grill spawned four No. 1 hits, including the smash hit “Amazed,” and established Lonestar as music’s preeminent pop-country band, according to a news release.

Lonestar have won win many of music’s top honors, including Academy Of Country Music awards for New Vocal Group in 1996, Single and Song Of The Year in 2000, along with Humanitarian Of The Year in 2002. They also won Country Music Association’s Vocal Group of the Year and International Artist Achievement award in 2001. Lonestar have sold nearly 11 million records since their formation.

Ticket prices start at $35, and can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com.
