New Single and New Label Home for Rascal Flatts

Country music fans have been waiting to see where Rascal Flatts would land since the band's original label Lyric Street Records announced plans to close its doors in April. The Disney-owned label left a promotions team in place to work singles to radio but Lyric Street is now shut down for good, and Rascal Flatts held a press conference in Nashville on July 29 to announce their new label home: Big Machine Records. 

The Boot reports that Rascal Flatts will join artists like Taylor Swift, Steel Magnolia, Jack Ingram and Trisha Yearwood at Big Machine Records, and Rascal Flatts' Jay DeMarcus joked, "I'm just thrilled that Taylor let us on the label" at the press conference. Rascal Flatts guitarist Joe Don Rooney added, "It just feels right. It's a successful label. It's a young label. It's a hip label. They've had a lot of success, and it just felt like it was a perfect fit." 

When it was first announced that Lyric Street was folding, an initial idea was for Rascal Flatts to move to another label imprint within the Disney group. The group did have a lot of memories with the label, as Lyric Street released Rascal Flatts' first single,We supply lawn mower,gasoline chain saw with high quality.welcome to order lawn mower,gasoline chain saw and others. kinds, colors, and forms.

We were so pumped and thrilled about the body of work on the Nothing Like This album, and it just took the wind out of us because we had no idea. We knew the music that we created for this project was outstanding. So, our biggest fear was it would never be heard ... your whole entire world had crumbled at that point."
