Artist:Rushlow
Song:I Can't Be Your Friend
Album:Right Now
When the country band Little Texas split up in 1997, lead singer Tim Rushlow recorded solo at first. He signed with Atlantic Records and released a 2001 album. He scored a top ten country hit with the single She Misses Him. After Atlantic closed their Nashville office, Rushlow said that he was uncomfortable as a solo artist. He would rather front a band as he did with Little Texas. He got together with his cousin Doni Harris and they kept an eye out for possible band members. Harris played guitar on Rushlow's solo album. They spotted guitarist Kurt Allison at a club and he brought in bassist Tully Kennedy and drummer Rich Redmond. They were roommates backing up a singer. Keyboardist Billy Welch was brought in to round out the band. They signed with Disney owned Lyric Street Records on the condition that the band is called Rushlow. The 2003 album Right Now was released and the single I Can't Be Your Friend reached #16 on the Country Singles chart. Rushlow wrote three of the songs on the album. I Can't Be Your Friend was written by veteran songwriter Rodney Clawson and Brad Crisler. Christy DiNapoli produced. The album is available as a digital download. It appears that neither the band or Lyric Street was happy with the album. So the members of Rushlow left and joined Jason Aldean's band. Rushlow and Harris formed Rushlow Harris and signed with Toby Keith's label Show Dog. After releasing two singles they split up. In 2017, Rushlow recorded a couple of albums as Tim Rushlow & His Big Band. In 2017, Rushlow formed The Frontmen with former Restless Heart lead singer Larry Stewart and former Lonestar lead singer Richie McDonald. They turned it into a full time band in 2021 and released a 2024 album on BBR Music Group. They take turns singing lead and are currently on tour. Here's the video for I Can't Be Your Friend by Rushlow.
