The BWF Crew sits down with country music superstar John Rich of Lonestar and Big & Rich. John Rich is an American country music singer-songwriter. From 1992 to 1998, he was a member of the country music band Lonestar, in which he played bass guitar and alternated with Richie McDonald as lead vocalist. After departing from the band in 1998, he embarked on a solo career on BNA Records in the late 1990s, releasing two singles for the label and recording Underneath the Same Moon, which was not released until 2006. In 2001, he self-released Rescue Me, an album he was inspired to record by a cancer patient named Katie Darnell. By 2003, he joined Big Kenny to form the duo Big & Rich, who released three albums on Warner Bros.So of Course, Johns success also brought a whiskey brand down the road! Since its launch in February of 2018, Redneck Riviera Whiskey has donated more than $1,000,000 to Folds of Honor, providing dozens of scholarships to America’s most deserving families.John Rich had a very specific flavor profile in mind and was adamant that the ingredients be ALL AMERICAN! With this thought in mind, John assembled a legendary team with countless years of award winning whiskey creation. The goal? To build the smoothest and most approachable whiskey on the planet that would rival ANY Domestic or Canadian blends.Hundreds of samples (and a few hangovers) later, Redneck Riviera American Blended Whiskey was born.The final test? Making sure that it could get past even the toughest whiskey critic, Granny Rich! We are proud to say that it’s certified.------------------------------------------------------------------Check out our sponsors!Fudge Kitchen - In business for over 50 years.
