Tyler Childers

Tyler Childers cemented his position as a formidable artist with his critically acclaimed 2017 album Purgatory. Produced by Sturgill Simpson and David Ferguson, the album debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart and earned Childers the prestigious Americana Music Award for Emerging Artist of the Year in 2018, solidifying his unique sound that blends neotraditional country, bluegrass, folk, and honky-tonk. Prior to this breakthrough, Childers released his debut album Bottles and Bibles in 2011, followed by the Red Barn Radio EPs in 2013.

Building on this momentum, Childers released Country Squire in 2019, an album that spawned the Grammy-nominated single ‘All Your’n,’ recognized in 2020. Later that year, he unveiled Long Violent History, an album primarily composed of traditional fiddle tracks, with its potent title track directly addressing social issues. Profits generated from Long Violent History were dedicated to supporting underserved Appalachian communities through the Hickman Holler Appalachian Relief Fund, an initiative established by Childers and Senora May. His artistic evolution continued with the ambitious 2022 triple album, Can I Take My Hounds to Heaven?, which achieved significant commercial success by charting at No.

This highly anticipated project promises to further blend his signature Appalachian sound with experimental rock, psychedelia, and gospel themes, showcasing his continuous growth and innovation in the music landscape.
