In 2007, their hit, Moments, pushed Emerson Drive over the top in country music.

香蕉视频直播淟ooking back 10 years ago and seeing where our career first started with I Should Be Sleeping and knowing that there was a movement going around us as a new act on the scene, I just remember how exciting and crazy it was, all at the same time,香蕉视频直播� said Emerson Drive香蕉视频直播檚 lead vocalist and founding member Brad Mates. 香蕉视频直播淲e were out there on the road over 240 days of the year for the first six years. I just remember those times being kind of eyes wide open, taking everything in. It was such a great first few years and, now fast-forward 10 or 11 years, we香蕉视频直播檙e still playing music and making music. Longevity has always been a goal for me in this band, so to think we香蕉视频直播檝e now been doing it for 17 years 香蕉视频直播� straight out of high school 香蕉视频直播� is the ultimate. We香蕉视频直播檙e doing something right.香蕉视频直播�

The group has several successful studio albums, including their Nashville debut Emerson Drive in 2002. That was followed by What If? in 2004, their 2006 release Countrified and 2009香蕉视频直播檚 Believe. After taking a break from recording new music, the band returned to the studio under their own supervision without involving a record label. The result was Roll, an 11-track album with songs mostly penned by the band and then Tilt-a-Whirl, which was released in 2015.

香蕉视频直播淲e felt it was time to turn this thing up a bit and find a place where we are really identifying the instrumentation that we have in the group,香蕉视频直播� said Mates. 香蕉视频直播淚 really feel like that sets us apart from everybody else. I think we know our fan base fairly well, and I know that there a lot of industry experts out there who have heard Emerson Drive over the past decade. I really feel like this is the album, and the sound, that will keep our band moving forward for another 10 years.香蕉视频直播�

Among their list of hits are Just Got Paid, Fall Into Me, Last One Standing, She香蕉视频直播檚 My Kind of Crazy and The Road (released in 2018).

香蕉视频直播淗aving a group with so many accolades as a headliner at the Penticton Peach Festival, where the audience gets to watch them for free, wouldn香蕉视频直播檛 be possible without the sponsorship of Tim Hortons. We cannot thank them enough for helping bring Emerson Drive to our free, family-friendly event,香蕉视频直播� said PeachFest president Kendall.
