It香蕉视频直播檚 early days for Old Dominion and their country music tour Happy Endings but they香蕉视频直播檙e kicking things off right by claiming their first number one song on Canadian music charts and playing Penticton for the first time.

Trevor Rosen, guitarist and keyboardist for the Nashville-based band said timing couldn香蕉视频直播檛 be better to be starting the tour with song Written in the Sand hitting number one on Canadian country charts.

香蕉视频直播淲e have a number one Canadian song while we香蕉视频直播檙e in Canada, how great is that?香蕉视频直播� he said with a laugh during an phone interview with the Western News from a hotel room in Calgary.

Written in the Sand puts music and lyrics to a familiar question women and men ask when in a new a relationship: 香蕉视频直播淎re we written in the stars, baby, or written in the sand?香蕉视频直播�

The song is a track off the band香蕉视频直播檚 sophomore album Happy Endings released in summer 2017. The album peaked at number one on U.S. Country Charts and produced another hit single No Such Thing as a Broken Heart.

The album was followed up by acclaimed record Meat and Candy in 2015, which hailed several hits including Break Up With Him, Snapback, and Song For Another Time.

Although the five-member band, including Matthew Ramsey (lead vocals), Whit Sellers (drums), Geoff Sprung (bass guitar), Brad Tursi (guitar) and Rosen, are hitting a high note it wasn香蕉视频直播檛 too long ago they were struggling to be noticed.

香蕉视频直播淚 remember playing for $50 and free beer,香蕉视频直播� Rosen said. 香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檒l never forget those days. There are times, we have all these employees now and multiple buses and trucks, we look at it and remember the five of us in a little minivan touring around.香蕉视频直播�

All the Old Dominion members have a long history in Nashville but as writers not frontmen.

香蕉视频直播淚 grew up playing in bands. I moved to Nashville for various reasons, mostly for the writing. But I think we all dreamed of getting a record deal at one time or another. At some point we all decided we wanted to be the best writers we could.香蕉视频直播�

Members have written hit songs for country greats including Kenny Chesney, Blake Shelton and many others.

Rosen said in the earlier days of the band they used to play a lot of covers, but now fans want to hear their originals.

香蕉视频直播淭hey want to hear us and that香蕉视频直播檚 great,香蕉视频直播� he said. 香蕉视频直播淲e love playing music. We loved it when we were in a band and broke. We love it now and are excited all day till we get to play.香蕉视频直播�
