In the Winter of 1977 five friends gathered in a basement in Birmingham, AL. and formed the band, Telluride. With the release of their first, self-titled, album in 1980, their single “Birmingham Tonight” garnered Telluride acclaim as one of the top three bands in the nation by Miller Brewing Company, earning them a two year corporate sponsorship. That sponsorship led to a recording contract with RCA Records and catapulted Telluride onto the Top 100 Billboard Singles chart with “Let Me in Tonight” and “Breaking Away”. Telluride became one of the most popular bands from the State of Alabama.

After 20 years on the road, Telluride stopped touring; they each pursued individual careers and formed families of their own, all while continuing to share a stage together a handful of times each year. That tradition continues and this year they will mark and celebrate 46 years as one of the most enduring  and loved bands from Alabama.
