Career

The band was formed in 2005, 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. Felker later said the musical arrangements were "not a good representation" of what the band later became. ''Diamonds & Gasoline'' followed in 2010. The songs "Easton and Main" and "Bossier City" were re-recorded for their 2015 self-titled album. 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.
