Career


The band was formed in 2007, with original members including Evan Felker and R.C. Edwards. Their debut album Bossier City was recorded a month after the formation of the band, in order to have a recording to sell at live shows.[2] Felker later said the musical arrangements were "not a good representation" of what the band later became.[2] Diamonds & Gasoline followed in 2010.[3]

The songs "Easton and Main" and "Bossier City" were re-recorded for their 2015 self-titled album.[2] Turnpike Troubadours' most recent album, A Long Way from Your Heart, was released in October 2017 and peaked at number three on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.

On May 31, 2019, the band announced they were going on indefinite hiatus. Two years later, on November 24, 2021, the band's Instagram was cleaned of all previous posts and their website, www.turnpiketroubadours.com, read simply "Coming Soon" with what appeared to be a black band logo on an orange background. Since then, the website has been updated.[4]

Later in November 2021, the band announced its reunion and return to touring, with a show at Red Rocks Amphitheatre announced for May 2022.[5]
