Chanteur
Country US né le 6 Août 1983 à Houston (Texas).
A Red Dirt
country singer with a flair for gleaming arena rock, Rich O'Toole built a
regional following in his native Texas during the course of the late 2000s and
early 2010s. A native of Houston, he began playing music in high school but
started taking it seriously while attending Texas A&M. After playing a series of
frat parties and clubs, he independently released Seventeen in 2007, and the
debut earned enough attention that he hopped over to Smith Music Group for
2008's In a Minute or 2, which was produced by Mack Damon. Three years later, O'Toole signed
with Average Joe's Entertainment and took a shot at the big time with Kiss of a
Liar, which featured cameos from fellow Texas stars Josh
Abbott and Pat
Green; the record peaked at 73 on Billboard's country chart. In 2013 he
launched his own label, PTO, which debuted with his fourth album, Brightwork.
This record was made with Ilya Toshinsky, who became a regular collaborator over
the next few years. O'Toole headed out to Los Angeles after its release, and
that's where he wrote the bulk of Jaded, which came out in 2014. A three-year
gap, during which time O'Toole released a series of Texas-themed emojis and
developed a clothing label, separated Jaded and American Kid, which featured
several collaborations with Evan Gamble and appeared in March 2017.
