The Critically Acclaimed Band Earns Career First ACM Nominations
for “Vocal Group of the Year” and “New Group Of The Year”
Capacity Crowds Filling Clubs Across The Country For LANCO’s
“Undeniable Chemistry and Killer Musicianship” (HITS DAILY DOUBLE)
NASHVILLE, TN – First-time Academy Of Country Music nominee LANCO has earned nods in both the “New Group” and “Vocal Group of the Year” categories this year, and the fresh “modern country rock sound” (American Songwriter) of their No. One debut album HALLELUJAH NIGHTS (Arista Nashville) now boasts over 220 million digital streams. The latest single “Born To Love You” that has critics calling it addictive and fans proving it so, is one of the 11 tracks frontman Brandon Lancaster co-wrote for the album. Following the multi-week chart-topping hit “Greatest Love Story,” the “foot-stomping new single” (Rolling Stone) proves the PLATINUM-selling band is “well on their way to being reigning hitmakers,” (PopCulture).
“Born To Love You” stands out for its “infectious melody accompanied by adoringly heartfelt lyrics” (Taste of Country) and continues to reveal another piece of their story that’s rooted throughout HALLELUJAH NIGHTS. The climbing single has served as a fan-favorite during sold-out club run in major markets including Chicago, New York City and Los Angeles.

They will take their electric live show to the UK this week for their first of three London performances.
“We’ve played close to 400 shows since we met and formed LANCO about five years ago, and every one of those shows…especially the ones in the early days for only like 6 people…were such an important part of this journey we’re on as a band,” said lead singer Brandon Lancaster. “It’s much easier to see that now and to understand that every long drive we made in that old RV was helping us get to today. Last week, we lost our minds when we heard we had two ACM nominations, tonight we are playing the Opry and tomorrow we are leaving for the UK to start telling the story of LANCO overseas. For a group of guys who got our start jamming in a carpet warehouse and playing house parties just a few years ago, this is beyond our wildest dreams!”
In an incredible year of firsts, the “arena-rock leaning band” (Entertainment Weekly) became the first country group to debut on the Billboard Country albums charts at No. One in 10 years and this summer they will hit the road for their first amphitheater run as special guests on Dierks Bentley’s 2018 MOUNTAIN HIGH TOUR.
