LOCASH LIGHT UP LIVE WITH KELLY & MARK WITH PERFORMANCE OF “HOMETOWN HOME”

Highly sought-after duo LOCASH, comprised of Preston Brust and Chris Lucas, lit up Live with Kelly & Mark yesterday (5/19) with their MULTI-WEEK #1 smash “Hometown Home.” The pair wowed as the undeniable anthem showcased their stunning harmonies, palpable energy, and magnetic charisma. Of course, it also remains a signature standout from their new album Bet The Farm—available via their own Galaxy Label Group now. Listen here.

Between mounting critical acclaim, millions of streams, and the never-ending adoration of fans around the globe, they have quietly emerged as Country’s most in-demand force of nature. After the performance, Kelly Ripa of Live with Kelly & Mark presented Brust and Lucas with a very special Billboard plaque to celebrate their two-week run at #1 with “Hometown Home” (watch here). Then, later visited Billboard’s New York City headquarters where they captured a series of videos, welcoming audiences to spend a day-in-the-life with LOCASH.

Indicative of their enduring impact, LOCASH’s latest single “Wrong Hearts” is among the most added songs at Country radio this week. Launching with 71 stations spinning the record nationwide, this marks the biggest add-date of their career and another major win for Galaxy Label Group further proving the duo’s business acumen.

“Wrong Hearts” might just be LOCASH’s most poignant and personal single yet. These two dedicated family men take stock of their decisions, the lessons they’ve learned, and how a few of the “wrong hearts” they encountered along the way brought them right where they were meant to be all along as husbands and fathers. It’s an identifiable message trumpeted in irresistible fashion through this song. The refrain resounds, “The swings, the misses, all the bad decisions that got me where they got me, guess they had to happen, that highway to hell, led straight to your arms.” It concludes with a chant, “Thankin’ God for all the wrong turns and all the wrong hearts.” Produced by Jacob Rice, Brust and Lucas notably co-wrote the song with Matt Dragstrem and Josh Thompson.

LOCASH have dominated the conversation in 2025. “Hometown Home” vaulted to #1 at Country radio, adding to a growing list of career #1s — check out the story on Billboard. Plus, it registered the first #1 from the debut release on their label, Galaxy Label Group. With an impressive list of national TV performances and appearances this year, they also recently drew a standing ovation at the Grand Ole Opry with a powerhouse four-song set as part of the Opry 100 celebration featuring a wildly energetic rendition of their PLATINUM-certified “I Love This Life” with surprise guests Savannah Bananas. Watch the performance here.

Touring in support of Bet The Farm, LOCASH are hitting the road hard with a slew of headline dates, plus fair and festival stops through October. For full touring details and ticket information, click here.

 

 

ABOUT LOCASH:
A PLATINUM-selling duo who play by their own rulebook, LOCASH make feel-good Country music with a small-town spirit and big-time impact. Out now, Bet The Farm serves as the brand-new album from singer/songwriters Preston Brust and Chris Lucas and features fan favorites like “Isn’t She Country” and “Buzzin” alongside “When I’m Older.” These add to a hit-stacked catalog that already includes their 2015 PLATINUM breakout “I Love This Life,” GOLD #1s “One Big Country Song” and “I Know Somebody,” nine chart-climbing singles, and over 1 BILLION global streams. In a bright start to the new year, the Nashville duo appeared on ABC’s Good Morning America in January and performed their two-week #1 Country radio single “Hometown Home,” a carefree anthem that marked the first release from their very own Galaxy Label Group. Launched last year and distributed by BBR Music Group/BMG Nashville, the one-of-a-kind record label allows Brust and Lucas to maintain complete creative control over their music while mentoring a whole new generation of like-minded stars. LOCASH’s bold and soulful brand of Country has garnered nominations from the genre’s biggest award shows and earned raves from the likes of American Songwriter (who praised the duo for “hitting homers and serving up first-class songs”). After wrapping up a jam-packed 2024 — whose highlights included teaming up with Monster Jam to create their own limited-edition die-cast truck and playing stadiums all over the country as support for Kane Brown’s IN THE AIR TOUR — LOCASH are going nonstop this year with in-demand headline shows and major festival appearances.
