Troubadour Festival is owned and produced by Double Tap Entertainment, LLC. Double Tap Entertainment is a boutique live entertainment company owned by East Texas natives Cody Johnson and Chase Colston, lifelong friends who have known each other since we were 5 years old.
Chase created Red Dirt BBQ & Music Festival in Tyler, which he produced for six years (2014-2019) for Townsquare Media until the COVID-19 pandemic led to his job elimination just prior to his seventh festival in the Spring of 2021. Afterward, we formed our new company with the goal of taking the barbecue and music festival concept and making it bigger, more dynamic, and an even better experience for our guests.
Our goal with Troubadour Festival and any other venture we do in the future is to create an unforgettable experience for our guests, first and foremost. We are a small, family-owned business and understand the importance of where our money is spent. You work hard for your money, and if you put it up in hopes for a great experience at our events, we will work as hard as we can to make that the case.
Cody, a partner at Johnson Volk Consulting in Plano, lives in McKinney with his wife, Bridget, and kids, Abi (5) and Ben (2).
Chase lives in Tyler, where our home office is based, with his wife, Maureen, and their two dogs, George (8) and Pearl Jam (7).
We both enjoy barbecue and live music (duh), spending time with our people, and playing golf (Cody is way better in that department).
Don't hesitate to reach out to us if there’s anything we can do to make your experience better.
Cheers!
