Nestled in the Rocky Mountains, The Trouble Bound Band draws its sound from the crisscrossing roads of Alt-Country, Roots rock, Country Blues, and a light dusting of bluegrass sensibility.

Tinged with reverence to the forefathers of outlaw country and also romanticized in stories of the Wild West, their music is a slice of the Colorado perspective that adopts a "live and let live" or rugged individualism life philosophy.

The band name itself, "Trouble Bound," is more of a mindset that comes from moments whereby, circumstance or choice, someone ends up headed for trouble. Thematically, the songs examine the overindulgences of liquor, twisted love, and occasional lawlessness—although generally more of the mischievous variety than anything that might truly hurt someone.

The result is high-energy songs with personal lyrical themes. However, even with the wide variety of influences, the mission of a Trouble Bound Band show is simple:

Burn from the first bar and make it a good time for all.

TROUBLE BOUND AT THE CORE,

is a 6-piece band that began in 2015. 

At first, T.B.B. was founded by Brian Eloe and Dustin Olde, who met in high school many moons ago. The current lineup began solidifying in 2018 when Chris and TQ joined Brian, Dustin, and Joel. Then, the final piece was added in 2022 when Alaina brought her formidable voice and female power to the band.
