Turnpike Troubadours bringing tour to Jacksonville in November
The Turnpike Troubadours, surely the finest country band to ever come out of Tahlequah, Okla., are bringing their 2022 tour to Daily's Place in Jacksonville.
They're scheduled to play at the amphitheater at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 5. Southern rockers Blackberry Smoke, who headlined the same venue last year but were unable to play due to a backstage COVID diagnosis, is also on the bill. American Aquarium opens the show.
Tickets, priced at $49.50-$125, go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday.

The Turnpike Troubadours released their first record, "Bossier City," at the end of 2007. They didn't appear on the charts until their third album, "Goodbye Normal Street," in 2012. Two more albums, 2015's "The Turnpike Troubadours" and 2017's "A Long Way From Your Heart," made the Top 5 on the country, indie and folk charts.
The band went on hiatus in 2019 and announced a reunion late last year. The Troubadours returned to the road in April and headlined two sold-out shows at the Red Rocks amphitheater in Colorado in May. They also played at the huge Bonaroo festival in Tennessee and did a pair of shows at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville.
The band has only played three Florida shows in its career, including a 2016 stop at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre. The new tour includes one other Florida date, at the late October Moon Crush Harvest Moon festival in Miramar Beach.
