"The Housefire"

Wide Open Country Premiere

From the new album A Long Way From Your Heart

Available October 20

Produced by Ryan Hewitt (Avett Brothers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Lumineers)

A Long Way From Your Heart is the fourth release from the fiercely independent outfit whose three previous albums received critical accolades while amassing a massive and highly passionate nationwide fanbase. With his vivid character sketches and blue-collar narratives, Evan Felker continues to solidify his place as one of the finest songwriters to come out of the dustbowl in recent years. Felker’s vocals are honest and affecting, combined with his virtuosic band mates – RC Edwards (bass), Kyle Nix (fiddle), Ryan Engleman (guitar), Gabe Pearson (drums) and Hank Early (pedal steel) –Turnpike Troubadours are a force. The band has achieved a rare feat with A Long Way From Your Heart by creating an album that is immediately accessible, yet continues to reveal greater depth upon each listen.

Turnpike Troubadours have acquired a large and devoted grassroots following over the course of their career:

The self-titled album (2015) debuted at #2 on the Billboard Americana/Folk Chart and #3 on the Country Chart, and has sold 51K+ copies to date.
The band plays 200+ shows every year and is touring major markets this fall.
Headlining Americanafest at the Cannery Ballroom this year.
Huge social following – Facebook: 197K, Twitter: 84K, Instagram: 79K.
