The tour adds to another notable year for the band, who joined forces with Zach Bryan for “Plainsman,” a new collaboration on Bryan’s latest EP, released this past Friday. Earlier this year, Turnpike Troubadours also unveiled a rendition of Robert Earl Keen’s “Feelin’ Good Again,” featuring Sierra Hull, along with a powerful music video featuring NFL star Christian McCaffrey. Watch/share HERE.
The new music follows the band’s acclaimed 2025 album, The Price of Admission (Bossier City Records/Thirty Tigers, stream/purchase here). Produced by Shooter Jennings, the record debuted at #1 on the iTunes all-genre and country charts, as well as the Billboard Digital Albums and Current Digital Albums Sales charts, further cementing the band as an undeniable force.
Released to widespread praise, Rolling Stone declares, “with Red Dirt as a genre enjoying its greatest popularity…The Price of Admission serves as a reminder that Turnpike is still the genre’s torchbearer,” while Spin calls them “a leading force in the gritty, authentic ‘Red Dirt’ country genre” and Whiskey Riff raves, “Turnpike Troubadours have continued to prove time and time again that they are the greatest band of all time.”
Throughout their renowned career, Turnpike Troubadours has amassed a massive following with more than 2.2 billion streams globally and over 1.7 million equivalent units sold to date. The band was inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame, appeared in the penultimate episode of Yellowstone performing three songs (“Good Lord Lorrie,” “Brought Me” and “Pay No Rent”) and has become a recurring presence in Paramount’s Landman, with eight songs featured to date.
Since their 2005 debut, Turnpike Troubadours has released six studio albums, including 2023’s A Cat in the Rain. The Associated Press praised, “they’ve returned with the kind of ferocity that feels destined to put them right back on that long-term upward trajectory…The earnestness is palpable,” while Spin proclaimed, “the Oklahoma group is better than ever…one of the most beloved groups in country and roots music.”
Originally from Tahlequah, OK, Turnpike Troubadours is Evan Felker (vocals, guitar), Kyle Nix (fiddle), Ryan Engleman (electric guitar), RC Edwards (bass), Gabe Pearson (drums) and Hank Early (steel, accordion).
