“We are so happy for Richard,” said Michael Stover of MTS Management Group. “He is one of the hardest-working guys I know in the business, and he deserves the recognition. He is proof positive that if you stay true to who you are, as an artist, you will find success. Don’t follow the current trends, or whatever you think is hot right now. By the time you jump on the bandwagon, that ship has sailed. Richard has always been a champion of true country music, and he’s being rewarded for his efforts.”
Stover and MTS, Richard’s longtime publicist, have recently assumed more management duties for Lynch.
Richard Lynch’s brand new single, “Starting Now” is already charting on the NMW country charts, having been named one of the past two weeks’ Most-Added tracks. It is also on the CDX Nashville Positive Country chart.
