  • Lanco Celebrate Romance, Bar Band Roots at Nashville Homecoming Concert
    (12.9.18) - https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-country/lanco-hallelujah-nights-tour-review-766686/ Lanco Celebrate Romance, Bar Band Roots at Nashville Homecoming Concert Brandon Lancaster and his group mix covers with hits like “Greatest Love Story” on Hallelujah Nights Tour “Greatest Love Story” hitmakers Lanco capped the opening leg of their first headlining tour at Nashville’s Cannery Ballroom Friday night, bringing a combustible mix of romance and live-for-the-moment joy to a sold- out crowd of about 1,000 hometown fans. Having spent the summer on Dierks Bentley’s Mountain High Tour and then their own Hallelujah Nights run, the five-piece band — made up of frontman Brandon Lancaster, guitarist Eric Steedly, drummer Tripp Howell, bassist Chandler Baldwin and multi-instrumentalist Jared Hampton — showed why they’ve been earning a reputation as one of country’s most potent live acts. Lanco broke out in 2017 with the Double Platinum single “Greatest Love Story,” a freewheeling epic inspired by Lancaster’s own youth in nearby Smyrna, Tennessee, and followed up in 2018 with the propulsive heartbeat of “Born to Love You” — plus a CMA Awards nod for Vocal Group of the Year. Just before Friday night’s show, Steedly shared that the band will spend this week tracking their second LP with producer Jay Joyce (Eric Church, Brothers Osborne). But at the Cannery, Lanco — one of the 2019 CRS “New Faces” class — were focused on soaking up their journey so far, not looking ahead. “The last time we played in this building, it was a few floors up, to about 15 people,” Lancaster said toward the end of their hour-long set, referencing the cozy High Watt stage on the complex’s top floor.

  • (2.21.2018) Greatest-Love-Story-Has-Been-Dream-Come-True/323937002
    (2.21.2018) https://www.greenbaypressgazette.com/story/entertainment/music/2018/02/21/lanco-success- greatest-love-story-has-been-dream-come-true/323937002/ Before he was playing sold-out arenas, Lanco lead singer Brandon Lancaster was working a concession stand in one. He saw enough concerts during his time at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville to know how audiences typically trickle in. Not a lot of people in their seats to catch the first opening act. More show up for the second act. By the time the headliner goes on, the place is packed. Unless the first act up happens to be a buzz-generating breakout band with a No. 1 song, “Greatest Love Story,” that has quickly become the stuff of proposals and wedding dances, and a debut album, “Hallelujah Nights,” that was the first by a band to open at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Charts since Lady Antebellum did it 10 years ago. Then all bets are off. “When we walk out onstage every night, we’re walking out to a pretty full arena. That’s been pretty cool for us,” Lancaster said. “... There are bands that I absolutely love, or artists that I love, that I didn’t hear about until their second record or I didn’t hear about them until I saw them at a concert and they were opening. I always say you have to go out there and kind of give it your all every night you play a show, because there’s a lot of people out there who are Lanco fans and don’t know they’re Lanco fans yet.” The band, along with Kane Brown, is on the road supporting Chris Young on his “Losing Sleep” 2018 World Tour that stops Thursday at the Resch Center.

  • Lanco Fashions a Winning Anthem, ‘Rival,’ from a Five-Note
    (04.22.19) - https://bulletins.billboard.com/country/country_update_0422.pdf LANCO FASHIONS A WINNING ANTHEM, ‘RIVAL,’ FROM A FIVE-NOTE RIFF When CBS viewers got a look at LANCO during the 54th annual Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards, they received a booster shot of audio and video adrenaline: bassist Chandler Baldwin bouncing in place, drummer Tripp Howell fiercely flailing his mane and his sticks, and guitarist Eric Steedly stomping and twirling during an intentionally ratty solo. “Rival,” the band’s new single, is a high-octane chest-pounder, the kind of song that defines LANCO as a live act. It’s also the kind of song that has been missing from the group’s radio playbook. “‘Greatest Love Story’ and ‘Born to Love You’ are awesome songs, but they haven’t necessarily showcased how big our live show is,” says Howell. “We’re so energetic, so this is one of the first oppor- tunities for us to showcase that with one of our recorded songs.” Appropriately, “Rival” is a song that arose during an outdoor concert tour, not in a small, enclosed writing room. LANCO had the opening slot during Dierks Bentley’s 2018 Mountain High Tour, and as roadies changed the set be- tween Brothers Osborne and Bentley, a simple, anthemic groove from one song on the soundtrack caught Howell’s ear. O “He really wanted to write off that tempo,” recalls lead vocalist Brandon Lancaster. “A lot of times when you write a song, songwriters either have the hook or the melody, but that’s the cool thing about having different guys in the band.

    Contact: Abby Ferguson | Marketing Manager 563-585-3002 | [email protected] July 19, 2017 - For Immediate Release Q Casino Announces Todd O’Neill, Michael Ray & LANCO in the Q Showroom! Dubuque, IA - Q Casino is announcing upcoming shows in the Q Showroom! Todd O’Neill :: Saturday, September 9 Free Show with the Nashville Next Winner Country Music singer/songwriter Todd O’Neill has been perfecting his self-described “pure Louisiana soul” sound in countless honky-tonks and dance halls for more than a decade. Todd’s whiskey-soaked vocals recently earned him the reigning Champion title of the Nash Next Challenge, further cementing his place in Music City. Hailing from Hammond, Louisiana, Todd applied the homegrown creative philosophy he was raised on when crafting his unique musical recipe: blending Cajun zydeco and New Orleans R&B with Nashville’s reflective lyricism. Todd is currently working on his debut single, produced by Jay DeMarcus of Country supergroup, Rascal Flatts which is expected to impact Country radio in 2017 on Nash Next Records under the Big Machine Label Group umbrella. After besting hundreds of other contestants in a four-month-long competition, Todd O’Neill was named the Nash Next champion in October 2016. The title earned Todd national radio airplay on Cumulus Media radio stations, a recording contract with Big Machine Label Group and having an original song produced by Jay DeMarcus. Todd dropped his debut single, “Love Again,” in April, and now the Louisiana native has released a new video for the tune, which is currently No. 42 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart after 10 weeks.

You say you love sun, but you seek shelter when it is shining. You say you love wind, but when it comes you close your windows. So that’s why I’m scared when you say you love me.” Bob Marley Larson 3 Introduction “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes a baby in the baby carriage...” This old nursery rhyme used to reflect the ideals of society; not so anymore. With so many “options” and “alternatives”, this sequence of events is becoming more and more rare. Though many would argue against a marriage without love as the primary reason, the logic of the rest of the rhyme has been thrown out the window. With casual sex growing to be a more accepted occurrence, many babies are being born to parents who are not married.
