Although the members of Lonestar on the cover of COMING HOME look like average suburban jeans-and-t-shirt guys, the band's sound remains firmly rooted in country. Sure, the group does lean towards a pop/rock sound at times, but the plaintive vocals of Richie McDonald and occasional fiddle and pedal-steel lines keep things in rural territory. Whether McDonald is singing about women, beer, or home, his everyday charm carries this enjoyable 2005 album.

The five-piece band Lonestar honed its country/soft-rock sound in America's bars and clubs for years before releasing their hit 1996 major-label debut. After bass player John Rich left the group for a solo career, Lonestar continued as a quartet, and released a second successful CD. But it was the band's third album LONELY GRILL that made them unlikely superstars. In 1998 Rich re-emerged as one half of the genre-bending, chart-topping duo Big & Rich.
