Nashville, TN (06.24.09)  The Lonesome River Band has a lot to celebrate these days as their current Rural Rhythm Records album, “NO TURNING BACK” remains the #1 ALBUM on July’s Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine (BU) Top 15 album chart marking the third consecutive month holding the #1 spot!  The band is also celebrating the #1 SINGLE, “Them Blues” on the July Bluegrass Unlimited Magazine  Top 30 Singles Chart.  Yet another single, “Like a Train Needs a Track” climbs again reaching #19 on the same chart. 

“In its 25-year history of making memorable music the Lonesome River Band has arguably never been stronger than it is on NO TURNING BACK.  If this album doesn't earn a place on a lot of year-end Best Of lists, something's amiss, because few other albums in any genre boast finer singing, songwriting, playing or more conviction than this gem,” said The Bluegrass Special.

On the heels of Lonesome River Band hot album, comes next week’s June 30th album release by band member Brandon Rickman titled “YOUNG MAN, OLD SOUL." The first single, "Always Have, Always Will" is already receiving incredible feedback from radio, media and fans.

The Lonesome River Band has recently been featured on covers of such publications as Bluegrass Music Profiles Magazine and Americana Rhythm Magazine and rave reviews for NO TURNING BACK. Band members include: Sammy Shelor, Brandon Rickman, Andy Ball, Mike Hartgrove, and Mike Anglin who are currently on tour with performances scheduled in Michigan, Kentucky, Canada, Ohio, Indiana, South Carolina and many more.
