Pioneers of the Red Dirt music scene and one of America's most beloved bands, Turnpike Troubadours has amassed a massive following throughout their renowned career with more than 2.2 billion streams globally and over 1.7 million equivalent units sold. Since their debut in 2005, the band has released seven studio albums, performed countless sold-out headline shows, appeared in Paramount's hit show Yellowstone, and were inducted into the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame.

The eagerly awaited follow-up to their widely acclaimed 2023 album, A Cat in the Rain, The Price of Admission, further cements the band as an undeniable force in the music world and led Whiskey Riff to declare, "Turnpike Troubadours have continued to prove time and time again that they are the greatest band of all time."
