Chase Colston is an East Texas native and the co-founder of Troubadour Festival, one of the largest Texas barbecue and country music festivals in the state. Raised in Bullard, Texas, he got his start in media early, launching a weekly newspaper in his hometown at 14 and moving into full-time sports writing in Tyler by 17. He later worked in digital marketing and radio, and in 2013 he created the Red Dirt BBQ & Music Festival in downtown Tyler, which sold out for six straight years. After the pandemic ended that run, Colston and his lifelong business partner founded Double Tap Entertainment and, in 2021, launched Troubadour Festival, a two-stage celebration of Texas barbecue and Country, Red Dirt, Americana, and Southern Rock now held in Celina and Bryan-College Station.Troubadour Fest is currently on hiatus, but is hoping to find a way to host the event in the future.
