Turnpike Troubadours, quite possibly the hottest band on the Texas-Red Dirt Scene, have signed on to headline Mile 0 Fest in beautiful Key West, Florida. Over a decade ago the band formed in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, a small town located at the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. Since then they’ve been rapidly growing a huge fan base with their gritty, country-leaning roots rock sound. The band is made up of frontman and guitarist Evan Felker, bassist R.C. Edwards, fiddler Kyle Nix, guitarist Ryan Engleman, and drummer Gabe Pearson. After their self titled fourth album debuted at number three on the Billboard Country Charts back in 2015, the band recently released Along Way from Your Heart earlier this year.
Turnpike is just one of the many artists that will help to make Mile 0 Fest Key West a “must see” festival for any fan of the Red Dirt & Americana music scene. The star-studded lineup for the inaugural year also includes Cody Jinks, Pat Green, Wade Bowen, Shooter Jennings, Charlie Robison, William Clark Green and a whole lot more.
Whether you’re taking in one of the big shows at the brand new Truman Waterfront Park Amphitheatre, stopping by one of the theatres or bars off Duval for a stripped down acoustic set from your favorite band leader, playing in one of the charity golf outings, or competing in the fishing derby, you’ll have a blast at Mile 0 Fest in Key West.
