Late January in Spokane is the stretch of winter when a Saturday night out needs a good reason. Here's one: The Frontmen have booked Spokane Live at Spokane Tribe Casino in Airway Heights for Saturday, Jan. 30, 2027, at 8 p.m.

The date was announced Oct. 27, and tickets are through AXS. Spokane Live holds 3,400.

The idea behind the group is simple. The Frontmen are three men who sang lead on a lot of 1990s country radio: Richie McDonald of Lonestar, Tim Rushlow of Little Texas and Larry Stewart of Restless Heart, as their Wikipedia entry lays out. They've worked together since 2017, sometimes billed as the Frontmen of Country, and signed with BBR Music Group in 2023. A radio announcement of their tour dates billed them the same way: three names, three bands, one stage.

What you get is a night built on songs a lot of people in the room already know by heart, with each singer taking his own band's hits and the three sharing the harmonies. It's a format that suits voices that have been doing this for decades, and it suits a crowd that grew up with those records on the truck radio.

The group has been working steadily. In 2026 they played dates from Florida to North Dakota, including a show at the Devon Lakeshore Amphitheater in Decatur, Ill., and an appearance tied to the Grand Ole Opry's centennial. JamBase shows more dates running into 2027. Spokane is one stop on a calendar that keeps filling up, which tells you the act has found its audience.

Spokane Live is the casino's concert space, and at 3,400 it's one of the larger rooms in the area. That's a good fit for a show that leans on familiar songs and a crowd that wants to sing along, and a casino date means dinner and a drink are on site before the show.

If you're driving out from the city, give yourself extra time on a January night and plan to be in your seat by 8.

Some reunions are about nostalgia and nothing else. This one works because the three of them still sound like the records. If those songs were part of your life in the '90s, Jan. 30 is a good night to hear them again from the people who sang them first.
