The Turnpike Troubadours are a Red Dirt country group from Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Troubadours are composed of guitarist Evan Felker, bassist R.C. Edwards, fiddler Kyle Nix, guitarist Ryan Engleman and drummer Gabe Pearson. The Troubadours have achieved overwhelming success on the so-called Red Dirt circuit; this says a lot about the band’s authenticity and fire, especially since their music in not what is typically produced in this genre. Over the past five years the Turnpike Troubadours have developed their rowdy, quick-witted sound and are heavy hitters with songs like “Blue Star” and “Gin, Smoke and Lies,” as well as the universally understandable breakup grievance “Wrecked.”
