Old Dominion brings unique brand of country to TCU Place

- Submitted by TCU Place

Proving that they are not your average country band, Old Dominion blends old-fashioned country charm, lyrical wit and rock n’ roll grit into radiofrien­dly, hook-heavy pop nuggets. And they’re bringing their unique sound to TCU Place, Feb. 3.

The band has emerged as one of the hottest breaking bands in country music, fusing clever lyrics and an infectious sound. Old Dominion recently released their highly anticipate­d sophomore album, Happy Endings, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums Chart and #7 on the Top 200 and were nominated for two CMA nomination­s for “New Artist of the Year” and “Vocal Group of the Year.”

Old Dominions new single, “Written

In The Sand,” follows the success of the first single off of the album “No Such

Thing As A Broken Heart,” which hit #1 on Billboard Country Airplay and Mediabase charts. The band released their first full length album Meat and Candy, which was certified GOLD by the RIAA and hailed a “stellar debut “by Entertainm­ent Weekly and declared “one of the hottest breaking bands in county music” by Vice.

In 2016, the band was notably named ACM New Group of the Year, ACCA Breakthrou­gh Group of the Year, AIMP Songwriter Artist of the Year and Music Row Breakthrou­gh Artist of the Year. Old Dominion consists of lead singer Matthew Ramsey, lead guitarist Brad Tursi, multi-instrument­alist Trevor Rosen, bassist Geoff Sprung and drummer Whit Sellers.

Old Dominion comes to TCU Place, Feb. 3. Tickets are on sale at TCU Place box office or online at www.tcutickets.ca. VIP Fan Experience­s are also available.
