The Music Hall is thrilled to announce an exciting expansion of our live entertainment programming. This year, we’re bringing shows to the Whittemore Center at the University of New Hampshire’s Key Auto Group Complex in Durham, NH, marking the next phase in our longstanding partnership with UNH. This collaboration allows us to offer more marquee artists, comedy performances, family-friendly programming, and more—right here on the Seacoast.
By expanding into the Whittemore Center, a 5,000+ seat arena, The Music Hall can now bring bigger acts and diverse entertainment options, making it easier for you to experience top-tier performances without traveling far. This partnership strengthens our ties with UNH and creates an opportunity for us to engage with wider audiences and grow our nonprofit’s reach in exciting new ways.

The Turnpike Troubadours have never followed any script. Breakthrough albums have been followed by breakups. Triumphant reunions have overcome insurmountable odds. And live shows have been thrilling, once-in-a-lifetime experiences.
Now, just two years since their comeback album, A Cat in the Rain, the Tahlequah, Oklahoma, band delivers yet another helping of the unexpected: the surprise release of The Price of Admission, the group’s most vibrant, piercing album since 2010’s career-defining Diamonds & Gasoline.
Reteaming with Grammy-winning producer Shooter Jennings, who oversaw A Cat in the Rain, the Turnpike Troubadours crafted and recorded 11 new songs for The Price of Admission, reminding fans and peers alike just how it’s done. Songwriter and frontman Evan Felker rises to the occasion, cementing his status as country-rock’s version of Bruce Springsteen. He writes and sings openly and poetically about his sobriety, about loss, and about lighting out in search of something, anything, to fill the void.
For Felker, it’s his band of brothers in Turnpike Troubadours: fiddler Kyle Nix, multi-instrumentalist Hank Early, guitarist Ryan Engleman, bassist RC Edwards, and drummer Gabe Pearson. All of them are at the top of their games on The Price of Admission, refusing to hold on too tightly and letting the music guide them.
