Ole 60’ Hits #1 on Apple Country Music Charts

Recently hitting Number One on the Apple Country Music Album Charts with their debut EP, Three Twenty Four, the local band Ole 60: Rhythm guitarist Tristan Roby, bassist Colby Clark, lead vocalist & guitarist Jacob Young, drummer Aden Wood, and lead guitarist Ryan Laslie, of Hawesville.

The local band Ole 60 recently hit Number One on the Apple Country Music Album Charts with their debut EP, Three Twenty Four. The 5-piece band are: rhythm guitarist Tristan Roby, bassist Colby Clark, lead vocalist & guitarist Jacob Young, drummer Aden Wood, and lead guitarist Ryan Laslie.

The band started with Jacob and Tristan practicing in a shed in Maceo. The two met Ryan Laslie, of Hawesville, and began playing together at the Galaxy Pizza & BBQ Restaurant, which is owned by Ryan’s brother, Bradley.

Jacob and Ryan were both employees at the Galaxy at different times and hadn’t yet met until Bradley introduced them. They decided on naming the band Ole 60 because that was the route that Jacob took to Tristan’s house when they first started jamming together.

Three Twenty Four was released last August, and the band began playing shows in January of this year. They have recently signed with Grey Area Sound in Nashville, as well as joining with Nashville’s United Talent Agency for booking assistance.

Upcoming Gigs

Ole 60 will be playing at Brasher’s Lil Nashville in Owensboro on Saturday, March 16th. And, on Saturday, April 13th, they’ll be playing at The Astra in Jasper, Indiana.
