Question: Which was formed first, the duo Big & Rich or Lonestar?

Context:
Lonestar
Lonestar is an American country music group consisting of Richie McDonald (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Michael Britt (lead guitar, background vocals), Dean Sams (keyboards, background vocals) and Keech Rainwater (drums, percussion).
 Before the group's foundation in 1992, both Rainwater and Britt were members of the group Canyon.
 John Rich (bass guitar, lead and background vocals) was a member until he left in 1998, and later became one half of the duo Big & Rich, as well as a Nashville songwriter and record producer.
 Between 2007 and 2011, McDonald exited the band for a solo career, with former McAlyster lead singer Cody Collins replacing him until McDonald rejoined.
Shuttin' Detroit Down
"Shuttin' Detroit Down" is a song co-written and recorded by American country music singer John Rich, one half of the duo Big & Rich.
 The song addresses the issue of the government bailouts of financial institutions, and has received heavy rotation on Michigan radio stations, as well as others around the country.
 Rich recorded and released the song in January 2009, and it appears on his second solo album, "Son of a Preacher Man".
 The album was released on March 24, 2009 on Warner Bros.
 Records Nashville, the same label to which Big & Rich is signed.
John Rich
John Rich (born January 7, 1974) 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.
 Records as well as ten singles, including the Number One "Lost in This Moment".
 After Big & Rich went on hiatus in 2007, Rich began work on a third solo album, "Son of a Preacher Man", which has produced two more chart singles.
 In 2011, Rich released two Extended Plays, "Rich Rocks" and "For the Kids" before re-establishing Big & Rich in 2012.
Lovin' Lately
"Lovin' Lately" is a song by American country music duo Big & Rich featuring Tim McGraw.
 It was released in January 2016 as the third single from Big & Rich's third studio album, "Gravity".
 The song was written by duo members Big Kenny and John Rich and McGraw.
Underneath the Same Moon
Underneath the Same Moon is an album recorded by John Rich.
 The album was recorded in 1999, after Rich left from the country group Lonestar and before he joined Big Kenny in the duo Big & Rich.
 However, like Big Kenny's 1999 album "Live a Little", this album was not released until 2006, after Big & Rich had released their first album.
 Rich also self-released an album in 2001, "Rescue Me", though it was recorded after "Underneath the Same Moon."
Gravity (Big &amp; Rich album)
Gravity is the fifth studio album by American country music duo Big & Rich, and was released on September 23, 2014.
 The duo announced that they had begun work on their next album in summer 2013 before releasing the album's lead off single, "Look at You," in January 2014.
 In addition to releasing the single, the duo announced that they had started their own record label, Big & Rich Records, which will handle the release of this album.
Live a Little (Big Kenny album)
Live a Little is the first solo album by American singer Big Kenny, prior to his joining John Rich in the duo Big & Rich.
 Recorded in 1999 for Hollywood Records, the album was not released until 2005, after Big & Rich had released their debut album.
 Its release coincided with the release of Rich's previously-unreleased debut album "Underneath the Same Moon", also recorded in 1999 and released in 2006.
 Unlike Kenny's work within the country music genre with Big & Rich, "Live a Little" is a mixture between rock and pop.
 This album was followed by "The Quiet Times of a Rock and Roll Farm Boy" in 2009 and "Big Kenny's Love Everybody Traveling Musical Medicine Show Mix Tape, Vol.
 1" in 2010.
Rich Rocks
Rich Rocks is the first extended play (or "Six Pak," as referred to on the album cover) by American country music artist John Rich, one half of the duo Big & Rich.
 Rich co-wrote all of the songs on the EP with the exception of "Let Somebody Else Drive", which is a John Anderson cover.
 On four of the six tracks, Rich is introduced by a friend that is also in the music industry.
 Originally slated for a late 2010 release, it was pushed back to May 17, 2011 to coincide with the release of John Rich's other EP, "For the Kids".
 Reprise Records released both "Rich Rocks" and "For the Kids".
For the Kids (EP)
For the Kids is the second Extended Play (or "Six Pak," as referred to on the album cover) by American country music artist John Rich, one half of the duo Big & Rich.
 Rich contributed to the writing of three of the six total tracks.
 The EP was released on May 17, 2011, coinciding with the release of John Rich's other EP, "Rich Rocks".
 Reprise Records released both "For the Kids" and "Rich Rocks".
 The songs "She's a Butterfly" and "Rescue Me" were originally recorded by Rich for his 2001 solo album "Rescue Me".
Big &amp; Rich's Super Galactic Fan Pak 2
Big & Rich's Super Galactic Fan Pak 2 is the second EP and DVD set released by the American country music duo Big & Rich.
 The compilation, released in late 2008, is a followup to their 2004 EP/DVD combo "Big & Rich's Super Galactic Fan Pak".
 This set is composed of a three-song CD and a live DVD featuring a full-length concert.
